Strong light but detail is lost and ghostly hand makes it look like a different theme

Oh, very appealing. I thought the hand was a skeleton at first, heh.

ohhhhh creepy i like it. im still on the fence if i like the light so overexposed comming from the door. I definatly see why you would try that, but im not sure if its working fully for you. but A+ for idea and composition

Interesting interpretation - good idea for this challenge. Do I even see "bones" in the arm? Wish the person were a bit more distinct (I know they are supposed to be ghostly) The light from the door is so bright it really draws the eye away from the person and I didn't see them at first - perhaps making the light more subtle would reach a balance?

great use of a long exposure time. The ghostly figure looks like it was painted on the door... or perhaps the afterimage of an atomic explosion! The V of light on the bottom completes the composition. I have 10 10s, and this is one of them.
