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!

Amazing photo. The two smoke blobs seem to meet up in the corner--a fluid motion which conveys a sense of grace and longing. The blobs (hope you don't mind my calling it that) almost have human emotion in this photo. I love it.

Thank you!
Keep on trying. If you do it with real smoke you'll need A LOT of light. I mean like 1000-2000W

Ok, this one looks almost too real, it looks like its living, or trying to form something living. Amazing capture, so simple, but quite extra-ordinary. wicked stuff!!

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal." I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood. I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a desert state, sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today.

Very cool abstract image. I actually stared at it awhile in wonder before I read the description. The noise is a drag and the overall sharpness could be improved but that doesn't mean it's an interesting piece of art. Nice work

Very nice. I was wondering the same as the person above - what kind of smoke is it? A cigarette? And I'd be really interested to know what the set-up for a shot like this is.

austizmo In reply to SueYong [2005-03-23 20:36:47 +0000 UTC]

I'm also curious about the setup.

I really enjoy this photo because it makes me think of the glass swirls in marbles. Its very beautiful and organic.
