I am not sure it would, deseng. Since the smoke he is blowing does not show up very well it might be hard to tell that he is smoking without the cigarette in the picture. Try the crop and see if that helps the shot at all. ~Sharon
I get the impression of a nice young man from this, he has a wonderful smile that I wish I could see better. I don't know why but I get the feeling that the cigarette is the subject of this image not the person. It seems way too prominent and the hand seems disembodied. Perhaps if the shot was taken from a bit further away the cigarette would be smaller and we would look at him more. One thing you might do is to crop the right hand side of the image so that there was less grey. He does have an interesting face, I'd like to see another portrait of him! ~Sharon
