Very nice. I love the colors, and the movement in the smoke adds a bit of energy to the image. One of my top picks. Good job!

I'm still at odds with this, one minute its great as is, the next I want to crop out the blinds and just see the incense sticks and vase. As a smoke challenge entry I think it would be more dramatic without the blinds, and as something you (will) hang on your wall, the blue/green mix is fantastic.

*vote watcher?* the 2 you just got was a bump!

Great idea but the window is very distracting 4 me. Maybe at a different angle it could have been cropped out.

cool lighting. I like the use of the blinds as a contrasting shape element to the curvy vase.

Some enormously serious sharpening gone on here, huh? was that to get the smoke trails some definition? If so, selecting their area and then sharpening that would have prevented those very strong jaggies on the sticks themselves. It's unfortunate, and ruins a fine effort.

Love the arrangement and colours. Excllent exposure. I feel though that it could have been cropped a wee bit on the right. Great job still. 9
