Tel, that was way too easy , did that sometime ago and once the smoke is inside the bubble the colours due to refraction subsided. I do it with a straw, no need for a cigar .
Now bubble floating with the smoke was the challenge, , that was a while back anyway

As usual couldn't help trying to come up with twists and a bit of innovations.
This is still very crude but I am hoping with time to be able to improve a bit

Water splashes and bubble, hmmm thinking about it I think it would be great to have both, bubble and water splash simultaneously . There, something to think about, any ideas someone on how to pull this one out .

I certainly will need a hand to clean up after the mess, oh and the contact of a good divorce lawyer . I have been already banned from the kitchen, and I have been warned that if anything else disappears from the kitchen I will be having cold sandwiches for the rest of the week

Thank you Tel,

I am back Bob , Back from the shed
I did dial some numbers but someone came with a rose to smoke me off

This is what happens when addiction settles . Can't stay too long away from smoke

That's quite an awsome set of teeth Mike , Wouldn't want to stick my hand near those ones.

That's Finlay's way of saying I love you to your son huh? The eyes say it all, you can clearly see that affectionate expression from the eyes of Finlay

Father Ted, this is a nice set of images.
The second batch is particularly nice, love the second one in the second batch, the pose of the striker is absolutely fantastic.

I don't think personally I would know what else to do or add on the images to make them more enhanced except that if you have a noise reducing software or something that you can use from the editor itself it just might take slighlty off those noise grains particularly from the few ones in the first batch. But you got to remember that if you reduce too much noise a bit of the sharpness also goes. That's what I had done with your kid's images.
Talking about your kid's images, I forgot to email them, so here they are, check your email on their way.

I really like these cricket images, I might even consider taking up cricket from now on if I can come up looking like them in the pictures. Running doesn't make me that good looking

Ooops, there is something in the air here .

If this is some sort of conspiracy going on between yourselves to sweeten me with titles so that I spend more time in the shed, may I say its working .

Soon I will have to be dragged out from the shed . In fact I am on my way there, just stocking up on some sandwiches and drinks and will go lock myself in there,. See you all later then

Oh my oh my, , now you are really being mean father Ted . You know very well what I meant, and what I said doesn't imply in any form or sense that your previous ones were not nice. I might not have commented on them but that doesn't necessarily mean that they were not nice.

"off running to check on the other cricket images scratching my head", where the heck are they?
