good concept, but the right edge of the shot is so washed out that almost all definition ofthe cigarette is lost.

Fast Driving

From this shot, all I'm getting is a parked car. Parking is rarely a common "habit", though this does appear to be parked in the middle of the road, and that could be a little dangerous (::grin::). Regardless, a slightly longer shutter speed to capture just a bit of the motion blur would give us a significantly stronger whack over the head as to what's going on here and what the "habit" might be.

Midnight Snacking

I like the idea presented, but for me the shot is just dark enough to mask the fact that the subject's opening a refridgerator door. Just a touch more light on the outside of the door would have lent a whole new world of character to the shot.

Nice concept and great lighting. The lack of focus draws too much of the emotion out of the shot for me, though. (did I REALLY just use the word "emotion" to describe a shot of a toothbrush?!?!?!)

One last cigarette before he arrives

are you absolutely certain she's not just taking her temperature aurally? There's just no way to really tell that's a cigarette in her hand... It could be a pen, pencil, a piece of chalk, or, well, a thermometer, however unlikely that might be...

I like the flame capture (and that's saying something after having looked at WAY too many "Fire & Ice"'s in the opposites challenge), and there's certainly no confussion over the "bad habit" depicted. If there had been a way to capture a little less of the blues on the right side of the shot, it would have been just that much better in my book, but it's still a solid shot.

Just One More Pint

clean, clear, and it gets to the point of the topic nicely. I'm always a fan of a bit more adventure in photography, though.

The excessive steam pulls too much away from the prime focus for my taste

Morning at Starbucks: A Daily Ritual

All in all, one of the more charming shots I've seen of late -- a good capture of "life per normal". My only really concern is that it doesn't quite scream "COFFEE" at me, as all of the logos are covered. Still an 8 in my book, though.
