Shot in the dark, wearing a black shirt, one small ceiling track light aimed from across the room, and heavily diffused on board flash. In ps, cropped, brightness/contrast, hue/saturation, levels, resized. I know this is veering strongly into the "digital art" realm, but that is what I felt was needed for this shot/theme, besides, I kind of like the style. Nothing really subtle about it at all, "In the beginning...God created the heavens and the earth..." Anyways, thanx for checking out my pic. :-)

I like the idea. It's very interesting the way you created the "blue smoke" in this picture. Details? I think the lighting on the fingertips of the hand on left is just a bit too bright.
clever effect and a bold image. contrast is very high inthe hands, and highlights seem a bit strong on my monitor. Like the shot and execution, however.
