Shot in the kitchen with candles and sparklers. This shot was taken just befor the whole thing fell off the gravy pot on which it was standing and very nearly set fire to the backdrop.
Shot in RAW convert with RawShooter essentials. Upped the showdow contrast and saturation. PS curves, USM.
My girlfriend Linda aka HorseMadGirl did the sparkler work

Nice painting with light/sparkler! Hope you left details of your process in the notes--if not, please add as it would be a great tutorial for the inquisitive.
Great eyebrow carving. Gives Jack a bit of a wicked look!!! I like the light painting with the sparkler. Overall, a cool shot. Good work on the exposure levels/processing. Nothing looks over-exposed.
Loved the swirling light. Very well executed. You took a simple carving and created an awesome image by surrounding it with interesting compositional items. Nice job.
