Description OK, last but not least, here's my personal favorite #2 (out of two).
___

I had to push the levels too much and y'all know what that means: Ugly nooooize and oversaturation!! A shorter exposure time would be appropriate, 'cause things a moving really fast at this scale (about 3 x 5 cm resp. 1.2 x 2 inches)

SO, this here's the third out of five (?) images of my new 'MICROSMOKE SERIES' I won't post all this time, because I'm still improving techniques.. so all you macro lovers, better be prepared, mwahahahaaaa!!
It was a pretty hard task to get these images (nope, just showing off a little), since my equipment is REEEEALLY ... low-tech. But hey: Necessity is the mother of invention, isn't it? Enough said - enjoy!

I do love your style but I wish I had come across your page sooner so I could have seen them! It's so interesting how it looks so smoke-like.

As simple as that? The capture would be slightly harder, I imagine Great shot ayways!

rawimage In reply to DeviantQuazzy [2008-01-21 13:28:22 +0000 UTC]

yes, simple as that.
smoke moves much faster and you have to get really close, and that causes turbulences and destroys the fragile smoke structures. and you need damn good lenses with fast autofocus etc etc. ...

i think it doesnt really matter the equipment u have as long as u can manipulate those tools and u were lucky and clever enough to come out with the results u wanted
yes i am a Macro lover..and this is one of the very best macros ive seen so far..
extreme focus..and great emphasis on the flows

Excellent
