Project Smoke: Fine Arts with Nikon D80 (Abstract Photography)
I enjoy looking at patterns. That is why I like abstract photography. Meaningless junk to the next person might actually mean something to me.
A couple of weeks ago, I did a mini project of my own codenamed Project Smoke. Nothing big, nothing fancy. Just trying my luck photographing smoke trails.

Here are a number of night photography shots taken with Nikon D80, using various manual and semi-manual settings. The photos were shot atop Mount Coot-tha in Queensland, Australia.
Lenses used were the 18-55mm lens and the 70-300mm lens. A tripod was also used for all the shots.
I know I know, most of the shots are horrible. But hey, I’ve got a good excuse. I’m just starting out! ;)
Also, apologies if I’m using the wrong photography terms. Still getting the hang of all the jargons.
