Well you can get a 100-speed consumer color film that does well with long exposures (Fuji Superia should do it), set your camera on manual or bulb with f4/5.6 and exposure times anywhere from 8 to 30 seconds. The range from 8-15 seconds should be good. IMHO the wider you open the lens, more smoke you'll get - but that's just my feeling. There's no metering involved here, unless you want for example to have a properly exposed background or something - but since it will be pretty dark at the time of shooting you'll need a good meter capable of metering those low light levels. -- Best regards, Victor mailto:vrem@swbell.net
