This post was intended for Digital Post Processing but nudity isn’t allowed there I was told.

This is a two element composite composed of the model on a black bkg. and a smoke shot on top.

With and without smoke shot presented for comparison with the hope that the effect adds to the final result.

The smoke layer on top was blended in with masks. All are my shots. The smoke was from an incense stick burning against a black bkg.

Very powerful shot of the model and the added smoke effect brings it to a higher level, IMO. Thanks for sharing this excellent rendering.

I said it before... you deserve the "artist" moniker. You must have searched and scaled to get that smoke to fit so well to the model. And your "wrapping" is excellent.

Beautifully done. Very creative, you managed to make it appear that the smoke was swirling around her body.

What is most impressive is the way you have used light to emphasize her muscular body

Thanks everyone. I put the smoke on a separate layer with the blending mode set on Screen and used masks to knockout areas to make it appear to wrap around. I used about three different smoke shots combined in one for the effect. Time consuming but fun.
