With the weather being unpleasant again this weekend and me itching to get some camera action, I decided to try my hand at more abstract photography, only this time with smoke rather than ice.
As with images of water droplets, you will see quite a few examples of this type of abstract photography on various photography websites the Internet.
These types of images are actually quite easy to do. All you need is a camera on a tripod, an off camera flash, a black back drop, some incense sticks and a bit of patience!
Once the images are captured all manner of things can be done in Photoshop such as inverting the image, hand coloring the smoke trails and compositing different smoke plumes together.
As with most abstract work of this nature, big prints look really amazing and make excellent center pieces in the living room, dining room or several hanging along a hall.
If you are interested in detailed instructions on how these types of shots are done then please go to my Digital Photography Tutorials site where a tutorial will be available soon.
