This one is cool! how the face is emerging from the smoke. But the fingers as candlelights, looks a bit to bizarre :( Must hurt to get your fingers burned up, doesnt it? ;)

Then there are some minors, on the brushing.. (like at the right of index finger, you can see a black area, that should have matched better the "not so black" around. This, may be cause of your screen beeing a tad darker than it should. (cause I believe mine is kind of calibrated, and I see those places where it should have been better).

pd. try to put more light/luminance on your monitor, and watch again the photo. :)

My pick for the top spot, clever idea, well executed with a few quibbles. The reuse of the same inward curling smoke form so often, in such close proximity really draws too much attention. If you were making a point with it, I missed it. If you simply liked an elegant shape, you over used it; it is pretty, but it draws too much of the viewers focus to what ought to be a tertiary element.

Creepy in not such an interesting way, at least for me. Sort of Halloween. A lot of good work here though put to a lesser use.
