Hello,
Here are some flash illuminated photos of the smoke rising from a burning incense stick, captured in the semi-darkness of our garage. The colour saturation has been boosted to bring out some of the subtle colours in the otherwise grey looking smoke.
The first session (last night) produced poor pictures as the on-camera flash made it difficult for me to separate the background from the smoke. This morning, I increased the distance between the incense stick and the (black sheet) background and that helped isolate the smoke a little better. Ideally, an off camera flash would be the go.
Thanks for looking!
Dennis
