I will take a guess that it was done with a slow exposure and waveing a light in the dark,,,then photoshopped. Of course it could be the smoke filter that corel has,,,,or your just a brillant photographer who has us all stummppped..Aside,, good work, nice colors...

Thanks for the comments..
No long exposure with light painting.. it is smoke photography (no brushes, no filters,..)

The editing I did to it: levels (to increase contrast a bit and make black black) and some cloning/painting away excess smoke that wasn't adding to the picture..

For more images and info, have a look at my site & blog Lumendipity photography (bottom). There is also a link to a good article on photocritic
