“A kirlian photo is a photograph of electrical corona produced around objects under the influence of high voltages.

There are two common methods for producing kirlian photos. One is a little tricky, but the other method is quite simple if you have access to a few basic bits of equipment. You can see how to make a high voltage power supply supply on the DIY ignition coil driver page and others.”
