there is something sad about cigarette: it's dangerous, it's not good for your body, it causes cause cancer.... and so they say, but it is the only way to have so beautiful smoke effects....
the light is perfect
great photo

is this the secret to get the model do what you want to do?
i should try

Oh....wow....! This is...absolutely stunning! I have no words for it right now...
But I love the lighting and the way you capture emotion is brilliant. And the smoke! All around a PERFECT piece...though I know nothing of photography. I suppose I have to look at it as if it were drawn or painted. It would still be a wonderful piece.

smoke related photos are always a turn on. (where did that come from!?)
i love the lightning, he's cute.
i'm just not that sure about the crop... i would have taken a bit off the right side and made the left a bit bigger, but that's just me. (:

Awesome... I love how the smoke parallels his thoughts!
Man.. I think I've been brainwashed.. On the one hand, smoking kills. On the other, it looks cool.

the smoke totally captivates me...swirly wirly weeeeeee
so what was the difficult decision? clearly it was wether or not to vanquish the annoying person infront of him blowing his dark brooding guy secret agent cover into a puff of smoke. clearly he chose to vanquish. go him.
*must work on her puff of smoke turning abilities for next annoying person encounter!*

well captured smoke

very nice. the wisp of smoke seems to contort and move within the space implied by the camera, and the way the model seems to acknowledge it, personifies the smoke and makes its presense all that more mysterious and intriguing.

Love the mystery, the dark atmosphere of the unknown.
Would've liked to see some of the smoke closer to his mouth, rather than floating in the background, otherwise... love it.

that's great. like a police interview in a film - love the tension - something hanging in the air like the smoke - like he's waiting for it to dissipate - to calm so he can make his answer - lushous -

For whatever reason this photo reminds me of the classic film noir detective or private eye - in fact as it's so devoid of color already I think it would work equally as well in black & white.. just for that extra grittiness

love the effect the smoke adds to the shot...nicely done

The flash really effective here...
His expression and black background also enhance the feelings...
I think it would be nice if you cropped out the right part of the face so emphasise more on the shape of the fase such as the nose, lips and eye.
Btw, nice tip for modeling photography!! I just need to make sure they can stand up and walk straight

This is wonderful Alina, the shot is very balanced and well compositioned. The lighting is classic old hollywood, I actually thought of James Dean when I saw the thumbnail. There's a popular black and white of him that looks strinkingly similar. The smoke is a wonderful touch, just suspended.. as if part of the decision process.
Great expression on the model just rounds off the whole shot.
