 Its a lie because I don't smoke. I have smoked cigars, on the golf course, time and again. It is a Cuban, which is verboten in the states, and its meant to signify the taboo obsessions.

This was done with 8$ macro extension tubes. I think the colors are pleasing. I am concerned at the perception the viewer may have of a cigar smoker,because I am not, but we have to realize that all shots are not autobiographical, so who really cares.

Looking at this now I see the light between the "h" and the "i" looks weirdly artificial, almost dodged. oh well,

Monitor calibration is not a priority for me, maybe it should be.
