Hi Duane,
Interesting lighting and the fire smoke creating a kind of mystery effect to
the scene!  Does it work as a kind of "TWI-LIGHT" situation? Yep "Smokey
so."

I don't think this would have the same kind of "eerie effect?" If shot in
colour?   B&W? Definitely so! The B&W retains whatever you want to think it
is?  Fog?  Mist? Smoke? low level clouds???

Colour wouldn't give you the same kind of visual effect. Quite often B&W
will give a greater feeling for perceived thinking in what the "Visual
effect is?"  Smoke or possibly fog, as that's what it kind of looks like?
Right or wrong. Go to colour and the complete meaning of the scene will
change. Because it becomes the realities of life as it is.

Quite frankly I like the scene regardless of what the effects are being
created by.?

cheers,
Dr. ted :-)
