I was not trying to show that I was being shocked, but rather that I was "shocking" the viewer. I was trying to personify the character of shock. The highlights are intentionally blown and the colors modified to what I felt shock would feel like. I'm sure people won't understand the connection to the challenge but my idea was to make you feel the subject which is the representation of shock as a character and the effect he has on you.

Getting shocked, I think not. It looks like you had fun creating a hot wire scene that is not very realistic. I think that Photography is above all an activity that should begin and end with fun so I've decided that you will get one of my only three 10 scores this challenge. Good luck because you may need it. Thanks.

Neat interpretation of the challenge.. A little over-exposed towards the bottom, and the bubble wrap is a bit distracting.. Great stuff. 7

hahaha! gr8 photo, deffinitely on the lighter side ;-)
*no pun intended :P* hehehe
i like the colour change i really think it enhances the picture though id possibly put your subject just a tad further to the right for the added impact, the eyes are really a gr8 focal point!!!
also possibly look at cropping the top of the photo so that about a third of the hair is cut out that way the reflections on the bubble wrap dont interfere and provides even more focus to the eyes! but gr8 photo deffinitely one that brought a laugh

Not sure where the sense of touch is depicted in this image.

great idea, but your highlights are terribly blown out on his shirt, hands face and the plug. I do like the bubble wrap...
