[QUOTE="J-see, post: 372938, member: 31330"] If you light source below is strong enough, your smoke will stand out. I shot mine at ISO 100 without flash so there's plenty of room to get that smoke. A spotlight would be best. Anyone familiar with dark pubs knows how well the smoke is lit there. The only difficulty is having the light hit your smoke without hitting the lens or rest of the scene. I used a LED at some 300 Lumen. I switched to B&W and the smoke disappears a degree but you can push it up in post. It depends on the rest of the scene how easy that'll be.
