I like it!!

So what was the secret? Did you get lucky or was there some planning involved? and what was the smoke source?

Thanks Awais, nalvarez and ballentphoto to like the image. I am delighted!
ballentphoto, there can only be one planning in taking such shots ... be determined to shoot and keep on shooting till you are completely exhausted due to hot & humid weather and sweat - you can not switch on the fan because smoke will be disturbed and you can not obtain its smooth flow. The smoke was produced with a scented candle. Cheers!

Guidance required ...
I up load 533x800 pixel image but ultimately I get 276x400 pixel image in Dgrin threads. Hence, size of my images appear smaller than the other images. Naturally, I am committing some mistake. What? I am unable to trace. So, I need guidance to correct myself ... Thanks

I like the pic... what did you use for background? Cloth?

Thanks for helping me out ... but I am still confused.
- The address you have mentioned is bringing an attachment only ( am I committing some mistake again? )
- how to obtain the address you have mentioned.

Sorry to bother you again but I am practically zero in computers.

Thanks for liking the image. Yes I used black cloth.
