 Couldn't get out and do a landscape like I wanted, and studio is not my speciality, but I gave it a try anyway. I know it would be better if the matches were all perfectly aligned, and I expect to be voted down for that, but I still want to see what the general though is about this one.

I dig this shot. Smoke is hard to capture and you have done EddyG's image a great tribute.

Really cool looking image. Were they done with different color lights or colorized in PS?

Excellent capture, a small thing, but it would have added impact to have the match in the same location in each frame. 9.

good variation on that good ol' theme. I wish I could see more of the blue smoke, it seems to be the most interesting of the lot. /7

whew, when you try to reshoot a shot already done (EddyG) and a difficult one at that, it's hard not to compare. I think you know already this did not match (no pun) up. On it's own merit, the smoke is fairly well captured. The blue going off to the left is the weakest, the red is the strongest.

Good set up for a triptych. The way the smoke is cut off feels a bit uncomfortable, though.

Nice, good idea. Similar to what I did once. I know it would have been very difficult but this would have been way cool if the smoke from each photo had protruded into the adjacent photos. It would be a hard task I know, but I would have tried it. As it is though, super!

Very striking! These pictures of the colored smoke are so awesome. I really need to try that sometime! This looks great in a triptich format. Great job (of course).

I'm a suker for a smoke shot (probably ibecause i cant do them myself). I personally would have dropped the title and put the red smoke in the middle since it is more blobby and the g and b taller.

We've seen similar shots, but that doesn't make this any less stunning.

Cool idea! But the tip of the match is hard to see. It took me a while to distinguish it from the background.

Love the smoke! only critisism is that the matches are not crisp.IMHO

I like this. It's a great idea, well carried out. The only thing that bothers me AT ALL is that the middle match looks to be a bit higher up in its frame than the other two. Otherwise, flawless. 9.
