Where There's Smoke, There's Patterns
I've been intrigued lately with some beautiful images I've seen of smoke, and I've decided to try it. This is from a first attempt this morning using an incense stick, window light and a black background. The window light isn't all that bright and I ended up shooting this at 1/15th of a second and a ISO 0f 640. As a result it's not as sharp as I'd like, and there's a lot of noise. Still, I like the pattern.
I don't have an off camera flash, but I have ordered some fluorescent studio lights, and I'm going to see if I can do better when they arrive.
Others of my smoke images can be seen in my Smoke set. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157625415055236/
