I did rush during the PP of the image. Should've tweaked the whites more. This is indeed a negative, that when inverted looks like a negative because after I inverted the image , I tweaked the existing blueish color of the smoke to appear red.
Trying to work with manual focus on the kit lens is somewhat of a nightmare so back to the trusty 100mm macro which is a bit too long but I plan on re-trying this sorta shoot.
Will update exif shortly, and post setup details. Was in such a rush to post that I left it out.

Thanks, Louise :)
Smoke was the first subject I had in mind when thinking of the Negative Challenge, so the excuse to try it out again.
P.S.
Great minds think alike ;)
I bet that (like me) you are very disapointed with your result .... I think it has been a little underrated. Anyway ... Smoke was a great subject for this challenge. It can produce so many different patterns ... it's very funny how our photos look so much alike :)
