Colored Smoke

HTTP response: NOT FOUND | MIME changed to 'image/png'


Camera: Canon EOS 450D
Lens: EF100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
Exposure: 0.006 sec (1/160)
Aperture: f/11.0
Focal Length: 100 mm
ISO Speed: 100
Flash: Metz 48 AF-1

Note: Since this challenge is about color I feel that I have to explain that the colors were added on PP. The method was although simple, I just added several layers each with a different mask and hue.
If the host decide its "cheating", fair enough. I wanted to actually do something for this challenge (other than picking a macro photo of a color full bug taken ages ago), and since I enjoyed the final result (first time I edited an Image outside lightroom) here it is :)

Sorry for the delay everyone -- Lost internet access last night and now I'm doing this at work so I have to rush it a bit.

Daniel2000 -- You're the winner :-)

All the entries are very good and Warl0rd no deductions from me -- nicely done.

Congrats Daniel! I'd thought about trying some kind of droplet shot but couldn't work one up this time. Nice job!
Warl0rd, loved the smoke shot!!
