Neat photo, but I think it would have better fit the challenge if you included the cigarette instead of just relying on the title.

The shot is lovely; I think I'd like to see what is creating the smoke, to invoke its particular aroma.

awesome lighting. I can't really think of any way to improve this.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/27/2003 09:58:05 AM
Excellent use of the challenge subject! The composition is a little heavy on the upper right side of the photograph. I think I would have liked to see thisd more as a verticle composition than horizontal.

Smoke is not an easy capture. You have done a very good job with this image. The lighting is exceptional. It just has a tab bit of pixelization but otherwise it is flawless.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/26/2003 11:29:07 AM
Wish we couod see the source of the smoke. The smoke itself is a great capture - neon blue! Tis would look pretty cool and abstract cropped in from the right so all you have are th horizontal lines. Almost a landscape of smoke? Maybe too sparse tho'

One of the best smoke captures so far. Well done .
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Lovely composition with a very abstract form. Love the color, and the capture of the sinuous nature of smoke. Great for the challenge.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/25/2003 10:13:21 PM
Very very creative. Clear and pattern is highly artistic. Great shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Absolutely stunning, especially as smoke can be so tricky. Has to be in the running for a ribbon here I think.
