awesome shot but are you sure its a texture ?

for it to be a texture, it has to have a 'feel' to it, smoke has no feel as such!

I'm kinda new at the photography thing but, in contrast to previous comments, I think this has a good feel to it. It's light and wispy as opposed to heavy and chunky but it has a "feel" nonetheless. IMHO

I'm was thinking it does when you breathe it in, it never said what part of our body we had to feel the texture with. I feel it with my throat and lungs, but thats just my idea

Yeah, but texture is all almost identical... This has black background, it could be a texture if it is zoomed in the smoke only. But this is okay...Who cares? By the way, it's an awesome shot!

I think you should have cropped out the black background to make it a "texture".

I think the black background is fine, if it was cropped out, I think the smoke would look like it was created in software.

Sorry, this is a nice shot, but it isn't a "texture."

Lovely. And do people really live there, I thought it was only for tourists, LOL

great shot

Nice shot but I would crop just below that dark rectangle (hole?). Other than that I like this one

Okay, thank you for your suggestion!

Great shot very much on theme.

Great shot.... good job author.

Much better Author, I like this a lot now

beautiful shot author ! i love this

wow, I never seen one this close! It almost looks like hair!

Not just you. I was very surprised by its look too when I saw it in my screen. I've never seen it that close either.

I can't decide if I like this or am totally grossed out by it Makes for a very interesting texture, that's for sure. Good Luck

same feeling here chaplain.. but one things for sure.. its a clean one.. hehe..

Wow!! I love it. The little bubbles are cool!

high marks!

yeah... high mark, but...

High mark but?

ooops, I had forgotten the emoticon (but I did remember to give you a high mark!)

Ah...now it makes much more sense. I do admit that it was my reaction to the picture when I saw it on my 22" screen.

Looks like some little colony of alien germs or something.

She's furry alright

Is it me or is it a little fuzzy?

Nice!

not fuzzy captain geo, its furry.. hehe..

Fun shot. might bump up the contrast just a little
