First Try at smoke

not sure if this is the right forum, but ill post here as the photo seems to suit the forum name.

anything i can improve on?

I like the way smoke trails naturally - I'm not sure the mirroring improved anything at all.

heres the original and original inverted.

You could make this so much more better in terms of the mirrored image. As you may already have noticed you have a human like figure in there (reminds me of the horror film 'mimic') By eliminating the background as pure white or pure black and then colouring the smoke in I think would make this a great image. Thats just my opinion, but great capture either way.

ha, i did this using a tshirt as a background, with a lamp setup to light the smoke lol

pretty ghetto, but turned out good for a first try
