Saw something like this and decided to see if I could figure it out. The dancer was downloaded from Pixel the smoke I shot several months ago. Getting the smoke in a pleasing position was the hardest part.

Thanks Bob. It looks easy and really it is once you get the right smoke. I'm embarrassed to say I spent over 6 hours on this trying different smoke and different colors of smoke. Tried several backgrounds and finally settled on black. Since I posted I work on the hand a bit.

When is a silhouette not a silhouette... Oh, when Jim-Pops does a wonderful job of making a dancing silhouette dance with smoke texture. Well done Jim-Pops

The colors and movements are wonderful. For me, though, I'd prefer softer edges for the dancer, almost like a 50 px feather from the black to the ballerina. But that's me. This is a distinctive work in and of itself.

All your hard work shows. Like nearly anything really beautiful, the effort is hidden.
