I, PiccoloNamek, took this photograph.

How I achieved the glowing effect on the photograph: I loaded the picture into Photoshop and duplicated the original bottom layer and then applied a light gaussian blur to the top layer. I then set the top layer's transparency to around 50-65%. (I don't remember exactlty) This by itself only made the picture look foggy. In order to achieve the glowing effect, I played with the top layer's blending modes, brightness, and color tones until I got the effect on the photograph. I don't remember what blending mode I used. It might have been "Soft Light". I bumped up the brightness of the top layer and also pushed the highlights into the red. And there you have it.
