Smoke works - 14/15: No time to reason (v2.0)

The third variation in the "no time to reason" theme in the smoke works series. Again, this is a work in progress and working on the other variations in parallel as well. In case, you are expecting a meaningful statement about the theme, I'd like to say that we as humans are weak in reasoning. We are too quick to brace our arms, too careless to use them. If we COULD make arms from elusive, ethereal things such as SMOKE, not only we would have done them, we would surely have used them already. Don't we all have hasty temper and act faster than a whiff of smoke? I regret, I am still flirting with surrender. I hope my days of surrender is near.

Excellent.

These look like exotic swords, especially the one horizontal across the middle of the frame.

Great, as is the series. I agree that the middle sword is much stronger. Perhaps an interesting angle would be to attempt to create specific swords (islamic scimitar versus crusader cross handle being the most - perhaps too - obvious).
