G- Great pic. What did you use for a smoke source? Incredible how intricate simple things can be.

@Tim O: I used incense sticks (a couple of them) to get the smoke. You can get them in most BackRoom-like shops and are pretty inexpensive too (a pack of 6-10 for $1 or so).

Excellent!!...the smoke has created an illusion of fabric..

@Akira: Thanks! Wish I had a black cloth for background, for it would have looked 'pure' white after color inversion. May be something to try in subsequent attempts :)

Dear Gowtham, This is a brilliant photo! In the art and technique of photography, you must be one of the best! :-) This must be the diamond of photography, the wonderful things you can do with the plain old element of Carbon! Regards, Mahesh

@Mahesh: This had been on my mind for a long time but did not know the technique and lighting angles, etc. Glad you like the result with our good old Carbon :)
