 This is for Kena, maybe she will quit smoking. Ironically, she was the one who supplied me with the cigarette. I got this idea from this photo I think that his is better, however I could not get the smoke to show up. I needed something to prove that the cig was not apart of the photo, otherwise it sort of did.
Congrats to all those here on DPC who are in the process of quitting!!! Quitting is no small feat.

Yeah!!!!!!
This is awesome...thank you for all the comments and votes!!!

By the way, I think that I am a Neat Image Addict. I really appreciate all the constructive criticism especially concerning NI. :)

Way too much neat image....her hand hardly has any detail! But a good idea.

Let me guess: photo printed out with a small hole in it, real cig poking through?

Clever concept :-)

Interesting interpretation and well captured.

I'm just hoping the overuse of neatimage (or similar) doesn't hurt your final score. The NI is fine apart from the hands/knuckles for me. Popped back for a bump and comment and noticed a couple of things on this viewing that I missed before. Firstly the fingers are not lined up but for me it doesn't distract from the image and secondly did you poke the cigarette through the picture?

The BAD habit!

good, would've been better without the fingers in the photo shes holding up to show more of her face.

Shame you could not remove the third hand by attaching the photo in some way so it was not there, the effect is very good for the challenge

almost... for it to meet the description of "a seemingly fluid scene" you can't have the same hand holding the lighter and the cig.
