Saint Elmo's Fire (2006)

By early 2006, I'd developed a technique I call 'ghosting' whereby I get multiple but
slightly different copies of a feature hovering around the original.
Saint Elmo's Fire exploited this in a dramatic way.
To begin with there was only four fire-bolts radiating from the centre.
With ghosting applied, this became twenty and this
wonderfully 'charged' image came into being.
