Earlier in this 100 Days project, John Timmons posted a beautiful short film entitled "Cloud". At the time I was current with the project and wanted to put my piece up immediately. I thought the film was gorgeous but was not inspired to write anything based on it nor any of the other pieces that had already been completed based on the film. It was late on a cloudless night so there was nothing outdoors I could photograph to tie in with the piece. I experimented with capturing clouds of smoke from extinguished candle flames but was not quick or skilled enough to capture anything to my satisfaction. In order to just get my piece done, I photographed the smoke from my cigarette, named it "Cloud" and slapped it up on the blog. The piece was done but I was not happy with it, despite a rarely given comment by Steve Ersinghaus on the piece. A few days later, I captured this scene on film in homage to the original work by John Timmons. I am putting it up today, and that, to me, is something.
