Didn't vote in this Challenge, but like the concept. As for your request for suggestions on the smoke, no expert, but would suggest faster shutter speed (can't see what you used) and more light play. Trying to keep a low ISO as well to minimize the grain. The few times I've tried to capture it I find that natural sunlight works best. Perhaps this image would have had a more dramatic effect with a more unusual angle/perspective. Would have been good to see the 'pants' too - if he has any.
