Smoke and Fire, A pictorial

I have always wondered how hard it would be to take pictures
of smoke and fire...

These fifteen images are what came out of forty-two shots.


The first were the easiest ones to capture. A stick of incense
makes for a very willing photographic subject...

















Well, those were easy enough even with my limited experience.

So I decided to move on to something common and everyday
in the way of smoke. A cigar and cigarette. But they decided
to make monkey's uncle out of me...




Ok, fine. Since the smokes didn't want to smoke without
me puffing on them I decided to move on to fire...
