Smoke - trial run

I've been wanting to do this for awhile. I had a play with shooting smoke the other night, to check out how manageable it is. I have a few ideas I want to try with it, but for now here are the preliminaries.

1.

I've been waiting a long time for these. It's been worth the wait. Nicely done.

#2 is pretty neat...but I kind of like the first one as well. Smoke is one of those fun little things to play with. What did you use for a source? I have had the best luck with stick incense.

Very cool Athena!

I would love to try some shots like this sometime.

Very nice. I couldn't pick a favorite, as they're all uniquely interesting. I really like the different colors.

Very nice Athena, good stuff!

Those look great Athena. Love the idea.

Like Lonnie, I can't pick a favorite, they are all very interesting in their own right.

Jeesh...Finally! Seriously #2 is my fave (even before I read even your comments)

Excellent stuff! Id love to have a go, but really haven't a clue where to start. Any chance of getting a run down of what you did?

Great job they are all good.

OK, I've had a chance to really look these over. I like 1 and 3. No particular reason, really, I just like how the smoke curls in those shots. The colors in 1 are fantastic. I like all of them very much, and if it weren't for the new "I Tired Of You Trying To Burn Down The House Just To Get A Shot" rule imposed by my wife, I'd be tempted to try this, too.

Wow! I like them all, but leaning towards #2 (although, purple is my favorite color, so I could be a bit biased there)

Way cool Athena Arent smoke images fun to experiment with? I think i'm hooked.. wont stop till i think i have it mastered.

Really like the first image.. but then again i like them all!

I really like #2 and #3
