Thank you all for your great votes and nice comments
It took me about 2 hours to build it. I almost gave up, because it was not so easy to make the adhesive keep the joints on it's place. Finally it worked.
The lighting was created using a big white umbrella on one side (as you can obviously see on the bulb's head), and two reflective papers on the other side.
The wire and plugs were fully operative, so at the end, I have kept this as a lamp in my house. It makes an original feeling on the living room ;-)

I was also struggling with my website, but I finally managed to finish the website. I have received fifty customers so far, and they trust me.

Nicely done but if you google "Self Illumination" it's not quite an original idea.

Nicely done. THe only reral flaw is that the body language seems to be pulling the plug out rather than plugging in.

This is so not my thing, but you worked this out so neat. Nice composition, shadows & light OK. The scene is complete en even tells a little story. Well done!

haha you copied this from google images I saw it on there. Then I thought hmmm how could I do this, and then I just gave up!

Changing my comment somewhat, lighting is fine actually, must be my monitor, all the best.
