Beautiful lady... but awful habit, yuk yuk yuk... cigarettes are a real turn-off. Kissing a smoker is like licking the bottom of an ashtray in a bar.... not for me, no way ! Phil may have seen the t-shirt first, not me, the cigarette is like a becon in the middle of the night... do not come near me or you'll die.... Great shot on how to push away people.

Have you tried to convert this to b&w? I'm betting it would be good. She needs to quit while she is ahead. Great shot!

Good candid shot :)

It is the shirt that draws the eye here, Tricia. It draws attention from the point of your image -- the pleasure of smoking. I converted it to black and white and the image changes its thrust completely. The eye goes right to the cigarette. The photo becomes less pretty, but is more to the point you are trying to express.

Good catch !! Which brand she uses, it makes pretty.... or she was even more pretty before.....
