Excellent - I bit it's harder than it looks to get that smoke just right like that!

I can kind of visualise you setting this up, doing a few takes and then saying it's rubbish when in fact it's pretty good...
Stephanie18-Jan-2012 22:50
Your candle sure did burn a long time! :)
The blue smoke is amazing!!
Pete Hemington18-Jan-2012 21:59
A smoke trail with a context - that seems original to me

Very nice patterns and colours of the smoke, very well put together also with the reflections.
