Intense...

So a few weeks ago I was messing around and practicing with lighting. I really had no idea what I was doing but eventually came out with something I thought was not too shabby. This is the original.

I like to edit some of my photos because one: I feel it is a part of photography and two: it is fun! So here is the edited version that I posted on my social network profiles; it got a good response.

The positive response on this photo really makes me want to experiment with lighting some more.
