Smoking Hat or Cloud factory?

One of Oahu's (Hawaii) most popular walks is to the peak of Diamond Head Crater. Upon reaching the summit you will experience one of the most spectacular views on the island of Oahu. Just to add my excitement of the view I spotted this Smoking Hat Cloud Factory.

Look closely and you can see where all that beautiful white clouds comes from - from the smoking hat!

Technical- cropped and increased lighting. Used Netimage to reduce noise.

Pls critique.

This is a great angle on an otherwise conventional scene. The odd format works well for you and the buildings in the bottom provides a sense of scale. A like the bang of the blue colours as well.

This guy must be really hot given all the steam he releases...

Interesting POV, Sunil!
Lovely composition, giving a feeling of looking over his shoulder (which in fact we actually do!)...
Lovely colours... In spite of NI looks like you still have some noise? But then it is always a compromise in loss of details...
