I decided to give the broken light bulb trick a try. I first removed the outer glass, then took a shot just as I applied electricity to it. This was my first shot. I tried a few more but liked this one best as it just looked like an angel with wings to me.

Is this another smoke image from a lightbulb?
The bottom shouldn't be cropped off.

Smoke?

I'm pretty sure this is a burning lightbulb filament. It made a cool shape though.

Don't look now, but I think your angel may be hiding his/her head. Very interesting image you've captured here.

smoke from a broken light bulb. a tad overexposed.

Very cool photo. Reminds me of an angel or a ghost. Very sooky.

I think the photo is well composed and I like how bright the photo is. The crop also works well for me.

Is this a photo of a flame?

I'm sure you trained in the smoke challenge? If it's the broken bulb technique, then you did very well in not making it obvious. It gives a great lighting and B&W is perfect.

You broke a lightbulb then turned it on? The smoke looks very cool.

Smoke from a burnt out lightbulb?

Coming off the smoke challenge, I really don't want to see another one of these, but your angel slant serves it well. It looks like a ghost or big foot photo. 7
