Love the bun in the oven one, nice work Keith!

Good job! With so much smoke I guess you used a large incense ?

KmH · Oct 31, 2013

These were made using the long incense sticks.

Most of the images are crops of a smaller portion of the original, which increases the subject scale in the image frame.

Thanks rummha!
You've only been a member for about a year. You'll find more photos by me in various parts of the forums.

I love playing with smoke photos! Once the weather turns cold again, I'm gonna have to do some more of this myself. I've never done them with more than one color, so I'll have to give that a go!

I have no idea how you came up with Nancy Reagan out of #3, but it and #1 are my favorites--well done!
