Smoke in a bottle

The Smoking bottle

Capturing smoke escape from a bottle

What IS soon becomes what WAS,

Just like a flash of lightning it lasts only to record its presence.

A photograph may linger on a little longer, perhaps even longer that the one that takes it.

Like at many burials the preacher says, dust to dust and ashes to ashes, we all return to the source, unrecognizable regardless to how dear and steadfast we hold on to it. Everything is fleeting… all is ephemeral!

    How did you get the bottle to smoke though?
  - asnappshot on March 30, 2015 at 5:59 am said:
    
    You pipe the smoke in and allow it to escape.

    Like everything, it is first an idea, then the execution, if all goes well, its a success, if it goes beyond it becomes a master piece. And if it fails you tinker with it, or in some cases just abandon it.

  I’m so glad you like it.Sometimes you have a plan for a picture and it takes a while for it to all come through and other times it just doesn’t work, But for this one it took just a few tries and it came through for me. Love your comments, thanks again.
