Nice blending of the two shots. The smoke looks way better than steam would.

Makes it a really impressive image.

Thanks for the comments.
Peter, this is a single shot, no blending.

Very, very nice. As mentioned the smoke looks great and gives a more dramatic appearance than steam. How did you manage smoke without blending photos?
I also like the marbled look of the brown paper.

I used a thin stick of insense and put the burning tip just under the spout. It was held in place by a standard clamp hidden behind the tea pot. then lit the scene with a back light to light up the smoke.

I have done a lot of photo work with blacklights and it never once occurred to me to use it on smoke. Awesome idea...

Love the shot, especially the colors and your lighting..

I think everything works well together. The background, the steam, the color choice, and overall finishing. Great job to the OP.
