 Taken using a Van De Graaf Generator. My model, Kelly, kept getting shocked as the charge would build up and arc to ground someplace. I have to thank her for being so patient through the whole ordeal, and my son for keeping the generator all tuned and working.

Hair was backlit with 3 lamps and used an SB800 with a bounce card.

Nevertheless an impressive capture that has life outside of the challenge.

Great hair and eyes! I think that it would be better to include the generator in the photo.

Great concept and title, but not so well executed. Feels flat and might benefit from boosting contrast.
