I tried a different candle this evening - and got some decent swirly smoke 
I could however do with a candle that isn't bright white - my next shopping mission.......
Faffed with slightly - a bit of topaz adjust, a bit of unsharp mask, levels - the usual pratting about.

lovely still life ... except for the smoke that is ....
Dark and intriguing. A photo with a thousand possible stories. Well crafted ....Peter
Cracking shot !!!...that whispy smoke is great !!
I've done a mod. to save you shopping for coloured candles !!......I just went to the Adobe candle-shop
& they'd got some Red ones in stock, but you can have any colour you want !!!....saves traipsing round
the Cheltenham shops ??.
Thanks folks
The feather has been knocking about for a long time - just rarely used. It was very fresh when I found it attached to the remains of its owner - I hasten to add that the bird was dead at the time!
Thanks for the mod Keith - I did go traipsing round the shops at lunchtime today - actually not too far from work. There's lots of candles out there but most have white cores so are a fat lot of use once the drips start running. It seems I need to invest in some decent quality beeswax candles to get some really good drips going.
