 "Yosi" is Filipino slang for cigarette. It's probably derived from street vendors shouting "sigarilyo! sigarilyo!".

This is a photo of my Ukrainian model, Jana, having her yosi break during an outdoor shoot we did recently.

I apologize if some viewers feel strongly against this photo. I don't smoke myself and i personally find it disgusting. I just saw this potential image in front of me and grabbed my cam and took it.

I think this would also work as a poster image for an anti-smoking campaign. Some people think that it's cool and fashionable to smoke. But that's just the surface. Wait till they see the other images related to smoking.

Wow, great candid shot. It's got a modern day, with more attitude, Audrey Hepburn feeling to it.

She looks pretty young. I just want to slap that thing away from her.

I hate smoking pictures but I have to admit that this is well made.
