A little more light around the subjects would help in the contrast. Nice capture with smoke.

Excellent image, but there's something about the cigarette....it almost hurts my eyes to look at it because it is so bright.

Now we're talkin hehe. Now did you paint that starbucks cup black? We have 6 of those and they are white.

Great lighting and set up. And love the smoke coming up from the cigarette. Don't you know smoking is bad for you? jk.

This is nicely done.

I was so going to do the coffee and cigarette thing myself. I'm glad I didn't though, would have come up against this. One of the best entries I've seen so far. Well executed, 10 and favourite.
