It's called racquet nail - where the width is greater than the length of the nail. It may be associated with a few syndromes (all dermatological e.g. Brooke Spiegler - multiple trichoepitheliomata) and a few diseases (hypoparathyroidism with resorption of bone) but can occur 'normally'. The actress from Transformers Megan Fox also has them

I did think her hand position was a little awkward in the thumb photo, next time ill pay a bit more attention

A thumb like that is known as a drumstick, may be a sign of a domineering person.
Hey Fons, she is a formidable person, with PHD and speaking with her she appears to be a very big brain on legs

hey thanks golunvolo, the lighting in this selection is all natural light, late afternoon in early September on the outskirts of Madrid, no added reflectors, just the light coloured buildings (and the floor in some cases) helped fill in

   That was my impression but it is so nice and controlled that may have had some extra help. Kudos on that front as well.
