I've recently done some experimenting with taking pictures of smoke. You can see some of the pictures in my gallery, and I've put some more information on how I made them on my blog:

Nice site!

If I remember correctly, there are some great smoke shots at this site:

Great site and some wicked photos of the smoke.

I tried this myself a while back just using a candle and blowing it out, without a flash and not playing around in photoshop. I got a couple of nice images but nothing as good as the ones on your site.

I'm going to give it a go again this week and try out some of your tips.

Hi mysticgnu
Did you give it another try yet?
