dreamy contragulations on your well deserved ribbon, I must have missed this one on the way through voting, I am not keen on the matches being used but this one stands out, you caught the smoke just at the right bit to give the effect, well done

Ok. Now I've seen my fair share of matchsticks, smoke, multiple flame shots in this challenge. I have to say that this is the most enticing thus far, of course I still have 100+ to go yet. :D I really like the way you composed this and the exposure and use of light on the smoke is outstanding. Nicely done.

I like this - the best of its kind that I have come across so far. I'm not usually a fan of borders, but I think yours works well here.

wow .... took me a few seconds to see it ... but the smoke looks so 'human' ... looks almost like a crowned figure riding some weird beaked bird/dragon/creature ... great composition and colours .. love the crop or placement .. =9
