My new theory is that the true measure of the greatness of a DPC challenge photo is how many 1's and 2's it's given in voting. Your image got 0 in both categories (and only two 3's), which means that even the idiots couldn't bring themselves to vote it down.
Your image is a true winner and one of the best shots of the last few months, period. Outstanding!
Yoo man this is FAKE !!! It's not a photo but it's created with a little 3d converting tool ! I did the same and got exactly the same results. The program is called CHAOSCOPE and you can download it here:

After careful examination, I can confirm this image was not created on Chaoscope, which isn't a little 3D converting tool either. It's a little 3D strange attractor rendering freeware.
I would be glad to provide my expert knowledge in this matter, whatever the subject may be (house, portrait, landscape, etc.) I am able to give you a definitive estimation of the chances for the picture to have been created on Chaoscope or not, all that for a very reasonable fee.
This is a wonderful photo, This guy Morreke is obviously some jealous person who is pissed that they didn't place in the top 3, maybe they just suck? Anyways. Congratulations on an excellent image...

Congrats on the ribbon Terje! And also for the smiles as I read your comment on my entry... and then saw it change a few days later... and then change again... =]
great shot. this typifies the reason i joined dpc--to find examples of images i want to learn how to make. thanks for a great entry! hope this does well.
Oh, man! I agree. You really captured it. Black smoke against a white background with really net swirls and great contrasts. Nice focus, too. The kind of image that you can really spend some time viewing. Congratulations. You're my top rating, so far.
Very nice. I like the transparency of the smoke. The high contrast against the light background works well. It's a little busy at the top but that's only a minor distraction. Among my top picks.
here we leave the realm of smoke and move to the texture of silk-like impression. Bumping up for creative effort, for it does not look like smoke but it looks cool.
I had to copy it to PS and invert it to see if this was a inverted photo of a smoke or ink in water. I would have rated it with 1 if this would have been ink, but after I saw it was an inverted smoke photo I rated it MUCH higher! good luck.
