Occasional Musings

Smoky shot

Since I bought a SLR camera recently, I can’t help myself from picking it up once in a while and shoot something that catches my eye. Recently I had some incense sticks burning in the corner of the house. For a brief period the sun shone through the plastic blinders over the window. The light was cut through the blinders and cast an interesting light pattern over the smoke from the incense sticks. Had to capture the moment and the resulting pictures are below.

Of course to give more emphasis to the smoke and the light split from the blinders, I converted the picture to grayscale and increased the contrast.
