Smoke gets in your eyes

A few smoke shots I did for fun shortly after receiving the D50. These will never be art, but it sure was an enjoyable couple of hours... before nausea kicked in from sitting too close to the incense sticks.
Note: I've had such nice feedback on this gallery, so I decided to do a new batch and post a few more. BTW - the titles I put on these just represent what I perceive in the smoke... you will perhaps see something else.

I agree! Images "full of grace". Elegant and soulful. Ancient and contemporary. Science and art. Takes my breath away!
