 Shot this in my basement with a 400ws strobe set to full power. The light was behind at about 25 degrees pointing down onto the smoke.

For PP
adjustment layer for levels
adjustment layer for curves, this is where you can really darken the blacks and bring the highlights out.
adjustment layer for channel mixer to get the desired colors.

I don't like this one as much, there isn't as much of a defined shape and the composition isn't has strong but again the lighting is very nice
