Great looking young lady, but what exactly is she doing with the arrow and her bow hand? Maybe Photoshopped?

Not sure about that shot, but she did receive extensive archery training for the movie, so the scenes were not shopped.

That shot has caused some controversy. I don’t know if it is a publicity still or an outtake from Hunger Games, but in the movie, she know how to use a bow and arrow.

Her character, Katniss Everdeen, is an excellent archer in Hunger Games.

It appears her left forefinger is draped over the arrow to keep in in a sort of “safe” mode.

The arrow’s not behind her hand. Even if it looks that way. Though it’s difficult not to be distracted. :D

Think about the fact she’s working on a movie set. That’s a real bow, and they’re probably doing re-takes, I’d presume she is just taking an extra precaution that no arrow accidentally gets away from her. Very responsible. Conservative even.

She’s also hooking her forefinger on the bowstring downward around the left of the arrow as well. Not sure what that’s about.

I think it’s just the way she learned, or how she’s decided she prefers to do things. I’d say the photo seems right.

She’s my new favorite actress, I just decided. :D
