Shot this at home with a "weather ball" in the dark. I printed a picture I did of my daughters eye and taped it to the dome. Then I touched the back of the paper where the pupil is to create the "bolt"
If interested I can post the original shot and a shot of the setup.

Whoa!!! How COOL is that!?!?!?!?! Simply amazing. Can't find anything compositionally wrong with it. Like everone else, I'd like to know how this was done. I'm assuming you used one of those electrostatic glass balls with a print out of an eye? - Definitely 10
shot through one of those eletrostatic glass globey things? fantastic execution either way (I assume someone will think this is spot edited, but I suspect not). Too bad you couldn't get the eye crisper, but I'm thinking that would be very difficult shooting through the glass. great shot.
This is a great futuristic-style image. If the 'lightning' is real then I'm suitably impressed as it really gives the image a spark (no pun intended!). I'm curious to know what and how it was done, though.
