It's an interesting photo but I have no clue as to what it is, or to what it's doing.

How about a clue?

Looks like your photo's of smoke rising.

I just love that song!

There was no actual smoke involved, only the illusion of a smoking cigarette in the hand of a fantastical creature.

I think we both have an artist's eye (mine belonged to Marc Chagall ).

I absolutely can see the Chagall effect in your work, a sort of dream-y playful quality that’s very nice.

How many times as a child I heard the phrase “her mind is up in the clouds” ….. I think it still is ….
