This is probably my favourite of the smoke only shots, I guess a little softness cost you a higher spot.

Nice use of gradient. I can see the dancer however the red area holds more interest than the yellow. I would suggest playing with a crop later.

Such a bizarre shape! Definitely has some movement to it -- well titled!

The color is the grab here. Sitting here looking at it though my attention just fades away. I am trying to make more out of it, trying to interpret more of the title into the image, and it just seems like too much work. I guess its just time to vote and move on to the next similar image.

Nice idea and attempt, however this looks too much like flame from a gas stream. I'm sure it's colorized smoke of course, but it's the distraction.
