whoogh! I keep thinking of Adam (the original one) getting zapped and a little perturbed as god keeps zapping him trying out his new wakeup charge. Cool stuff Marc!

Had thought to do something like this, but hadn't come up w the -how- But doubt I could compete with your execution of the concept anyway.
The flare is the perfect touch- raw energy finding a pas as coursing electrons

A creative genius is one way to describe your compositions. An outstanding image. A clear favorite and a winner at this point. Well done Marc.

Why didn't I think of that? After all Tesla was born in My country but I'm not Tesla and I'm not Marc. He, ah well, this is fantastic shot, in every way one look at it.

Oh my word, what a stunning combination of elements.
If that doesn't convey energy on all sorts of levels, I don't know what does!

Very, very good and clever. The flare does it for the shoot as it "welds the 2 different entities together.

Thanks guys, here's how it went :
I originally wanted to shoot 2 hands linked by a lightning, in a rework of the Creation of Man in the Sixtine Chapelle. This was triggered by the news that a Tesla coil show was happening nearby.
The hands shoot was easy, but i never could manage to frame a single bolt at the show.
I then ended with the concept of only one hand triggering a multi-bolt lightning.
Both frames were then pasted in PSE, and i added the flare at the junction.

Wonderful photo can you share a little? I really like it, very striking.

This is totally cool! It's the very stuff of creation - reminds me a bit of God's finger, creating Adam in the Sistine chapel fresco. Or Jove, or Thor, hurling the bolts. Your title works very nicely.

This is just one of those unforgettable images that I wish I'd taken but will never be able to do.

How electrifying!! Really neat idea Marc, I like that burst of energy at the tip of the finger. Your imagination is always energetic!
