 10 mini cigars later, a LOT learnt about photographing smoke (not as easy as i thought!) and a headache i came up with this beauty. hope it does alright. GO! inspired by Portrait of a Taurus by peete, check it out it is much better than mine, I put it down to external flash, me 1000w of flood lighting. sigh! (wanting external flash)

Excellent contrast. I love the way you captured the smoke. The person in the photo could be a little less dark in order to capture more detail, but other than that, I'd say its a great photo!
