I don't think ki is something you can photograph. You might be able to see it after some third eye development, but being a skeptic, I doubt your friend would do that. Your only hope is to levitate something in front of him :p You could show him Beavis's tk video on this site, though, that might work.
dont worry about your friend. you know its real, i know its real, like everyone here knows its real. whats the point of proving it to him? if he wont give you a chance, dont worry about it. you can live on knowing your more intellegent and aware then him!
Absolutely!
You don't have to prouve anything to your friend. He can continue going to the wrong way but you know that your belief is right!
If he want's some prouves so let him try by himself, let him work hard.
Ki is absolutely paid in the end.

there you got some pics of qi, i think.
As the other said, just ignore him...
Also, if he was a true friend, why would he want to make fun of you?
And I doubt any kind of picture, even the most perfect one, will convince him anyway. He does not want to be convinced; he wants you to stop believing. The only way would be to make him experience/feel it.
If you really want to and if you can "play" with Chi between your hands, you can try to make him feel it. just let him stand up with his right arm extended in front of him and have him close his eyes. Then, bring your right hand next to his right hand and try to feel the Chi in between your palms. Play with it. Compress it, expand it... and ask him from times to times if he feels anything, and what it feels like. You can also try by pointing your fingers towards his palm and go in circle. You can also slowly go up to his shoulder and then back again.... The problem is that he needs to be patient, relax, open minded...
About the Kirlian effect, I am not sure it's exactly Chi... Might be more magnetic/electric rather than Chi. So, I would avoid showing pics if your friend is already skeptical...
The best proof is direct experience. But, again, you should not feel obliged to prove anything to your "friend"... I witnessed some skeptical visitors at my TaiChi school; my teacher would do the experiment above; they would feel it but would still try to deny it exists... Funny to watch them try to find some twisted explanations... [|)]
a picture wont do anything anyway....i could draw colory swirls on a photo and call it ki! if he doesnt think its real, a pic with texture wont prove anything.....that probably would be the best solution, to let him feel it. cuz he wont be able to create his own if hes not a believer. if you dont have enough control over energy to do that, then let him read about a bunch of success stories! good luck!!!!
Take him to a kung fu Master or to some energy art's masters and they will prove it to him just with one hit, believe me :)
After asking this kung fu master to show me a fa jing I really felt his energy burning my air in my stomach.
Ask a kung fu master to hit him with a Fa jing and your friend will understand the power of energy!
There is much more to the universe than what one can see with their eyes. Many things exist that cannot be detected with the eyes. I cannot see the wind, but I know it exists. I can feel it, just as I can feel Chi. Ask your friend if he believes that X-rays, magnetism, or UV radiation exists.
I would direct your friend to look into acupuncture and acupressure. I believe these practices that have been used for thousands of years are based on the body's energy pathways.
You cannot make one believe something they do not wish to believe, no matter how many strong facts you may be able to provide.
Ah denial of the invisible, a wonderful example of this materialistic oriented world.
Learn to destroy a plank by using the cutting side of your hand or something. This is great because you wont succeed unless you have ki focussed in your hands+right concentration. But be careful, we dont want you to hurt your hand. :)
