'Smoke' from Michelle R. is a beautifully-done set of images that manage to capture the essence of smoke. The images are spectacular, demonstrating the countless ways smoke can curl, twist and transform into the air.

The black-and-white images are taken perfectly, truly giving an accurate perception of the [mystical vapor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-cocktail-smoker). 'Smoke' from Michelle R. is beautiful in an unexpected way, making me give a bit more respect to the [intangible clouds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atmosphere-demotion).

**Implications** - 'Smoke' from Michelle R. really draws upon an idea that I have known for a long time: smoke is an excellent subject for photos. Definitely worth a gander.
