Smoking's Not for Sissies Anymore.

Believe it or not, this is an actual cigarette advertisement.

Fascinating! And I smoke cigars! Isn't the term for showing white at the bottom of the eye sanpaku?  Regards, Sandy

I've never heard that term but I'll check it out with my Japanese friends. I suspect you probably know more about the subject than they do, though.

Jack,

Very effective use of pop art combined with self portraiture. Your relaxed and free posture is in direct contrast with the tensed intense expression of the smoker. As if you are offering the viewers the choice between a carefree happy life, and one filled with tension and thrill. The white patch obscuring his lips is a very important element in the image in my opinion. It makes the man's face more sinister, since it partially obscures his facial expression and thereby the human element in him. Overall, great find and great presentation.

Somehow reminds me of the "Zig Zag" man, interesting.
