The Fires Within

If you can see the feminine aspect to this than you will understand

the title... ;-)

 

Just having fun with some of my many, never published, shots of

incense smoke.

 

Thanks for your interest, time, comments and/or critiques.

Nice smoke pattern. For some reason I don't like heavily altered images. This is an interesting design, but it doesn't seem like photography to me. It may just be that I'm jealous because I can't do it myself. Not that my opinion means much, but there it is anyway.

Although you are correct in noting that this is heavily altered, I should say that the `smoke' portion is only slightly altered. You might have a look at my "Smoke As Art" folder to see some of my smoke shots in their original form.

 

Here I am simply experimenting with post-processing for a finished presentation.

 

My e-mail signature says "The image isn't finished until the pixelwork is done." so I thought I ought to follow my own advice...

 

Thanks again for your thoughts.
