Hello people! Yesterday I organized some event of few my best friends, made some bbq because we haven't seen for a month. While I was making bbq I came up with idea for photo, smoke photography. One of my friends is using vaper which gives a lot of smoke, too bad it was day so I had to do my best isolating smoke in that environment. I'm talking about first photo, as you can see, we were outside. I can't believe about that smoke colors, I didn't put any color there, just pulled up in post from RAW photo.
Same on the other ones, my girlfriend was smoking ordinary cigarette. In RAW I just changed warmth and that's it. They came up really beautiful. You probably know how I did this but I will tell you again, for someone who don't know. I just placed flash behind her to create silhouette of her and isolate smoke as best as I can. That's all, after that, there will be trial and errors of exposure settings. You need to find perfect exposure for this, I did after few shots. :)
Enjoy! :)
Thank you @qurator and @ackhoo very much! :)
Most welcome, @miroslavrc! :) I find the curling smoke fascinating too...
A woman who smokes… oh, horror!
I can't do anything about it, gotta accept it. :D

Such an unhealthy habit, but the photos provide a bit of mystery. Cheers!
I mean, I have nothing against it, that's their choice. :)
Right, I understand. Smoking is not something I would think to take a picture of, but you've done it in a mysterious and elegant way that draws the viewer in. Nice!!
Thanks, I did my best. :)
Cooool!!!!!
Thanks!
Uhhhh this is so mesmerizing!
Thanks! :D
You are welcome!
