The picture on the left is a correct cello left hand. The picture on the right is incorrect. On the correct picture notice the well spaced, arched fingers and the thumb directly behind the 2nd finger at the back of the neck. Another common cello problem is when the fingers "cave in" at the first knuckle and are not gently arched from hand to tip of finger
