A quiet smoke in the stairway of an aparment building in Agidel, Russia.

It is not burned to pieces, it is a dark hall with window light. Add to that very contrasty dark b&w processing. Some minor burning and dodging.

I like it and that is all that matters.

Nice photo, however I hate cigarettes, and that nasty thing in her mouth lowers her attractiveness by a couple of notches. I ain't gonna let it affect my vote, though.

Very cool image! I like it. Great lighting and tones. Perhaps it could be a little bit stronger compositionally with a wee bit of the left cropped off? Maybe not. Nice work.

The non-smoker in me wants to criticize the photo, but I have to say that the lighting is perfect. The only thing that may have added to this would be a trail of smoke coming from the cigarette. 7
