Aliens, nasty buggers....

Capturing and playing with smoke can be very additive and fun. This week's theme is smoke! Join in and post your own selfie having some type of smoke in the capture! You can view other entries here:

Oh Mike... that is fabulous. Is the smoke one image or more? It has a 3-d likeness to it. Nice shot... I hope I can get a chance to join in.

@kali66 I'm blushing.....

@photohoot The smoke is a single capture and then colorized. I took 118 shots, tossed out 20+ due to no flash, lame looking smoke or just uninteresting. This one made me think of alien right away. There is some other stuff going on but you have to look for it....

[Photochick]

great job. I might have to try this one...

@photohoot - wendy, i'd be so disappointed if you don't get in a post after rocking smoke shots a few weeks ago. :-)

There is something in the smoke that takes me right to a clip form the movie Aliens - yikes, but awesome!

[Peter Dulis]

Very creative ...

This is really cool! I love the different take on smoke. It definitely does look very alien!
