Smoke

...

Gritty.

You've done it again, Tamara. Great image. I'd be curious to see how it looks in b&w with a bit more contrast than normal.

Good one. I agree I bet this would look great in BW. Nice creative shot. Do you do all these shots with the self timer?

Normally when I see a new photograph by you, I know it is yours. This one stumped me. I didn't recognise the style and I did not recognise you.

 

Needless to say it is a strong image. Having said that it might have worked a little more if you could see all of the top lip and the tips of the fingers.

 

Here comes b&w version. I kind a like the colored one because of tones. I know there would be questions about the upper lip and nails but I just didn't want to focus on that. I was focused on the hand who is still but you colud almost feel it's gonna move any second.( If anybody knows what I mean).

...and what a beautifully graceful hand to focus on. I see what you mean about the tones in the color version, but I certainly don't dislike the b&w version either.

Tamara:

 

A gritty image for you but it is excellent. It again shows a new direction. Great work.

Love the deapth you create in your images It just brings the image alive. Can't help but wonder if it would have been better to not have the top portion of the lips cropped. Nice work. Again.

Love it. Raw glamour.

i relay love this image. about cuting the lips...

i agree with u.

There is nothing sexier than a woman lighting up a cigarette. The pose seems fake as the woman apparently doesnt smoke.

I despise cigarettes but I like this photo!

zanimljiv prsten, vera, cigara pri kraju, ronhill valjda, ima jos dva dima, usne zbog sminke djeluju agresivno (jer sve je ostalo u njeznom kontrastu) a nokti cine odlicnu dinamiku... hmmm pitam se kako bi izgledalo sa palcem...

vera je, ronhill nije. vidis nije mi palo napet s palcem.
