Smoke from incense, and exposure taken quickly after removing incense stick. Flash triggered remotely.
After Challenge:
Since the image was posted with so little time left for me, I forgot to add extra details :)
Yes, it was a fake shot intended, as I had no luck with two previous ideas, so I've had to shoehorn this one in, but not bad, apparently. This was done with fake ice cubes, and then I shot through the incense smoke that I've put behind it.
Thanks for all the comments :-D

perhaps try it with the glass not centered. That way the smoke doesn't go to the left-left side of the frame, but goes to the middle-left side of the frame and compliments the glass and ice. Well done otherwise, though.
this is great lighting.. my only pick is the white spots on the surface and the ice on the left has a weird color cast to it! Still a nice sharp shot! 7
Great idea. I think the overhead angle works, but the crop is odd. I think the composition would have worked better further to the right to include more of the smoke, and less negative space on the right. No vote.
