Congratulations! Excellent shot. I've tried to photograph smoke myself without much luck. Good job.

Congratulations Oliver :)
"What did this match do right after the shot?" Well nothing I guess. It's already put out, so it went into the trash. But what was it used for before it was put out? Just thought a put out looking cig. would've been more in touch with the title as I also dont associate matches with smoking either. I dont smoke but everyone around me who does, doesn't use matches. But I hear using matches to light cigars is best. In general as an overall shot I would pick the match over a cig.Message edited by author 2007-01-15 09:32:18.

Excellent capture. The shape of the smoke fills in the space quite nicely. But for the title and concept I think a cigarette or cigar would've worked better.

Ah, lovely. I really want to know in detail how you lit and shot that. Will wait for results.

Lovely picture of a match. I just usually don't associate wooden matches with ciggies. I'm insanely literal sometimes. Still a nice pic and deserves a 7 at least. I'll be back later. ;)

I like the shot but think it would have worked much better with a cigarette instead of a match.

this is definitly dependant on the title. It just looks like a photo of a burnt out match.
