 Had a light with a barn door off to the left of the house, and a cardboard box with a slit cut in it covering the lamp post to my left. Convert to greyscale, dodge burn, blurred, resize, adjust levels, reduce noise, save for web.
I don't have any models, so I use myself... PS, that is not a cigarette, just a rolled up paper that I dodged...

I like the premise, the pose, and the suggestion of a person behind the curtains in the house. It's just too dark overall, and the most lit thing is the cigarette...

Very nice, though I wish there were a little more detail visible in the foreground.
