 I thought about making a challenge on the oxymoron of All Alone, but I didn't like the pictures that I took. I went back and just saw the company called "Icy Hot." I've never done the smoke with black background image before, so this is actually my first try. I'm pretty happy with it!

More smoke would be more effective. This doesn't really stand out.

Ooh, my oxymoron wasn't so original. Several of us did this. I like your steam.
