Light bulb is hanging from fishing line. (the thinnest i could find)
There is a flashlight shining into the bulb to help the illusion of it being lit up.
Cropped.
Alot of dodge & burn, mostly burn.
Neat Image.

Not bad on the trick. The bulb is totally blown and that isn't quite good. The hand also looks slightly soft. You'll suffer a bit because of some of the other shots which attempted the same thing and managed to carry it off better. 6
I guess I'd prefer if the bulb weren't solid white, i.e. overexposed. It does stand out against the solid black background but I think seeing the filament or at least the soft glow of a frosted bulb would perhaps be nicer.
Great idea. Either my eyes are going bad but I can't help but feel that the had needs to be more in focus. But that is minor. The composition is great.
The focus seems to be a little off here, being shallow and on the little finger rather than your subject. Nice idea however and love to know how you got the bulb to light up.
