Day 12 - Colorized Smoke


     There's something special about shooting smoke. It's impossible for me to actually choose which image I like the best when I shoot a series of these. I can get lost for hours staring into the different shapes and letting the mind run wild with thoughts of what I think I see forming in each.

Dude, that is AWESOME. How did you do it? You must teach more with your shots for us uninitiated folk.

All it takes is touch of pixie dust with a hefty amount of unicorn farts.

It's pretty simple to do actually. Shoot smoke on a black background and then take it into an application like Photoshop. There simply invert the image and add a gradient overlay layer.

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, sorry, I guess I was on crack and didn't realize this was photoshopped. I'm a moron.
