Nice! Similar to my Red one>
I love playing with smoke!
Shelly Hiebert replied
Thanks David! Just went and took a peek at yours…awesome by the way. How did you get your smoke so red and your background so black. I don’t think I have this smoke art quite figured out yet….

Excellent! I love the colour! And what’s all that about being bored? How can you ever get bored with a camera nearby? Now you won’t get bored anymore, you’ll just have yourself a great smoke party! LOL!!

No more boredom here, but I think I need to change up the scents a little bit. Getting sick of Bergemote! Thanks Johanne :)

This one looks like a person standing – holding their head in their hands (does anyone else see that?) OK – this ‘boredom series’ is awesome – can’t wait to find out what boredom will drive you to next?

You should try patchouli and get an instant flashback to the 70s! LOL! Then you’ll be like Up in Smoke :-D

How come I didn’t know you had some smoke shots? This is really beautiful Shell, you managed waht I couldn’t and that’s to have every part of the image in crisp focus giving wonderful curves and shapes in brilliant clarity and I love the highlights offered by what appears to be light bouncing off different parts, great work my friend
