Where do all
the secrets live?
they travel in the air
you can smell them
when they burn
they travel
Those who say
the past is not dead, can
stop and smell the smoke
you keep saying
the past is not dead, well,
stop and smell the smoke
you keep on saying
the past is not even past, and
you keep saying
We are...
smoke

I had a burst of creativity and energy (how rare lately) and took some pictures of incense smoke. I have been wanting to try this for awhile. It's tricky but so addicting. I see some things I can improve on for sure.
It's calming to actually just watch the smoke burn and then to start seeing the shapes inside of the smoke. In some of them there were very distinct shapes and I started seeing faces..lol kind of trippy but very cool. These were some of the more pretty and normal looking ones. Tomorrow I will try to share some of the more fun things.
My fave is the last flamey one!

Bobbi, these are seriously cool! Love, love these. Lots of late 60s, early 70s trippy vibes going on with these shots. Settings? Are these the actual smoke colors from the incense? AWESOME SHOTS!!!!!!!!
