Playing with Smoke

because I was getting bored with water?
Here are the runners up for today's 365 photo of the day. The winner is posted on the 365 here.


 The Trumpet or a Phonograph?

The Candle from Beauty and the Beast (see his face?)
A Scroll Unraveling
The Dancer

Do you have a favorite?
Any thoughts on naming any of them?

The last one looks like a dancer with a bun in her hair, long legs, and arms floating thru the air above her

I agree - The Dancer she is. She seems to have a bit of a butt too. :)

Love them all. The last one is my fav. and the first one looks more like a megaphone from an old record player (can't remember the exact name of it) more so than a trumpet I think. These pics looked like they were a lot of fun, and you will never get the same picture twice with smoke.

Angie said...

The 3rd on looks like a face, and the 4th one looks like a unravelling scroll

Julie Cortens said...

Thanks Angie - yes a phonograph. I see the face in the third one - it reminds me of one of the characters on beauty and the Beast? The candlestick? or am I thinking of something else?

Michelle said...

Oh my goodness Julie!!! These are AMAZING!!! I would love to frame the last one (dancer) for Ashley's room! Great photos!

Julie Cortens said...

Sure Michelle. If you let me know the crop size I can send it to Don's for printing. Or how about a canvas? With a sheen on it?

Michelle said...

Oooooooh, canvas would be great but I don't know what size. If it's for her bedroom probably not too big, what would you recommend?

Julie Cortens said...

I know a 16X20 canvas is about $50 at Don's with a gloss finish before stretching on a frame. Why don't you give Don's a call and see what sizes they have and the cost for putting on a frame. OR you can check out Costco - but you won't get the quality of colour. However there is a lot of black in this so it may well turn out okay - I find Costco prints a little dull. Don's would be better. let me know what you find - if I have a chance I will call Don's

Michelle said...

Wow! That doesn't even seem like too bad of a price for a 16x20! I will try to give them a call too and get back to you, probably after the weekend. Thanks Julie!
