I like it! I think, besides the glasses glare, which you told us to ignore, if the cloud of smoke by his mouth wasn't so thick, it would be a bit better.
The smoke from the cigarette is a different color than the smoke from his exhale because his longs just filtered out all the tasty goodness of cancer...
I LOVE seeing people getting creative with their lighting setups like I do! It makes me want to go out and shoot real bad! This shot, in exception for the glare (which honestly doesn't detract from the image that much at all), is EXCELLENT! I would have never ever ever guessed it was shot in your laundry room.
Very cool indeed... I do like the glasses glare, though.... If I didn't know any better, it makes it look like he's in outer space with the glare from a solar system or something in his glasses....
