Wafting from an extinguished candle, luminous smoke swirls, twirling into intricate patterns against a stark black backdrop. The translucency of the smoke wisps is emphasized by the sharp focus, creating an ethereal visual experience. The image, executed in a stark monochrome tone, exudes a surreal feel, reminiscent of revered art photography. There's a beautiful contrast, lending an air of mystery to the otherwise ordinary sight of extinguished fire.
