Really nice. A person interested in fluid mechanics would be really happy :).

You've captured the elegance of nature. I like the outline of the match (is it?) and the blue hue of the smoke. How'd you get that black background?

@Michael Zhang: Hi Michael, I m glad that you like it. Well the smoke was created by firing incense (joss-stick). I was in my attic room and i close all the windows except one - so the room was nearly dark. The one window, that i left open was heading to the sun. Firing incense with hue of the smoke was illuminated by narrow sunlight (sunray) that was going through this small window - so the smoke was very contrast and relatively easy to catch:-)
