I'm surprised this didn't do better...but then again I liked it, so that was probably the kiss of death.

I think the ilghting is very good. I personally liked the pose with the cigar. Someting about her expression and pose makes her interesting and unique looking and the cigar suits that imo. The sweater adds a nice texture and I think the tones are done well.

I like it.

Personal opinion about the smoking aside (which btw, I quit doing 8.5 months ago), you obviously have no idea what you are talking about when it comes to processing photos.

As far as the cigar is concerned it was merely a prop. She doesn't smoke either.

Glad I wasn't the only one that made that connection.

Nice photo but seems to have a low impact/WOW factor.
