Found those descriptions from ancient history:
*
And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel's hand. (Revelation 8:4)
*
And a second time they said, "Hallelujah! Her smoke rises up forever and ever." (Revelation 19:3)
*
Probably broken ring hath yon cylinder mangled so force be gone and smoke of burnt oyle cometh forth.
(Revelation from experience)

Behind The Lens

Location

I made this photo from my terrace which overlooks a large part of Lake Ohrid.

Time

Date/Time of the shot is 28-Aug-2016 @ 09:27:51

Lighting

All of it, so Shutter Speed: 1/500 sec. f/5.6, ISO 100, 0.00 eV, Metering Mode: Pattern, Flash Off, Focal Length: 143.3 mm and White Balance: Auto1 - e.g. Daylight.

Equipment

I used Nikon COOLPIX P610, elbows on the terrace table... no other equipment used.

Inspiration

The speedboat suddenly went quiet and the sailors raised the engine cover to look inside. At the same time,smoke went out of there, to catch some fresh air. That was enough to raise my interest in the scene. :)

Editing

The photo is pretty much SOOC, nothing worth mentioning was done to it.

In my camera bag

For decades already I find it easier to carry a photo vest than any photo bag. It is more than enough to take along whatever I want or need for my photo session, walk or trip. My photo bags usually stay home or in the car, to keep the equipment I'm not using at the moment. My tripod has its permanent place in the car. The vest pockets usually contain two cameras. One of those is always waterproof. Sometimes I'll add a small action camera, mainly for its wide field of view and resistance to water and weather. Other pockets keep the spare batteries, ND and CPL filters, and one small camera clamp which can be fixed to almost anything. In many cases this can replace a tripod. The vest has deep pockets for longer lenses, and these usually hold a small water bottle, a sandwich, or a bar of chocolate - if I plan on being out for the whole day. I always pack about three meters length of paracord or similar strong, thin rope, one hefty pocket knife, and a lighter. Much can be improvised with these if need be. Recently I made it even easier, and take the essentials along in a waist pouch; one variable-volume McKinley. In the Outdoors, simplicity and comfort are my most important aspects!

Feedback

Sometimes even a sudden change in the regular sounds of your surroundings can alert you that something happens. So look around and try to find out what it is. The rest... you already know! :)
