Unique and purposeful, this entry is a clear demonstration of how to use lighting in a creative way. While not a particularly interesting image, it does demonstrate how to use lighting to create mood and simple effects that are visually pleasing to the eye. A great demonstration of lighting and it's effects on a closed environment. The author might have done a little better if a longer focal length was used to include the subject's shadow or a little higher angle to provide some depth and dimension. Still, a worthy entry into the challenge and a cut above the other entries that did not meet the challenge criteria. Well done.

The wire from the light is distracting, and the subject is passive, I don't like that, maybe if he was in some other position the photo would be much better, like with arms wide spread in god mode lol :D

Maybe not as sharp as I'd like but definitely a creative use of light. Would be even cooler with a neutral fabric covering the floor and cord.

Interesting project, I like the idea and the image except the wire, too bad its basic editing. 6
