from the critique club:
The ability to find hidden faces and objects is a game all children play. The younger, the sharper the imagination is able to find these shapes. It is part of day dreaming and of course, parents discourage the practice as we begin to grow older.
Sadly enough, this is one of the main tools of the artist. This ability is also tied indirectly to what is known in esoteric circles as the third eye, or the ability to visualize. The third eye is a little deeper, of course.
Many adults have lost this sense or ability and if the object does not bite them, then they dismiss it without further study.
Immediately, I discern two faces. The first in the middle with two eyes above and a mouth that is opening. There is another face that looks more like a skull looking at the first head. This one is located to the top right. the image was very well presented.
So while your image supports the hidden faces, you needed to exhausted yourself making smoke and shooting to find one that is not as subtle. It is the subtlety and the lack of this knack in many of your voters that kept this image from its due appreciation.
One thing is certain and that is that you are creative enough to have looked in this direction for an image. We need more day dreamers.

Very Creative!
Did you sit there taking shots of smoke for hours until you got one that looked like it had a face in it?
What did you do to get such a flat black background while lighting the smoke?
It looks like the face on the right is going to punch the face on the left. |

| Cool creepy faces. Focus is a bit soft, but I really like the faces you were able to capture in this shot. |
