Getting trought the time, tons of people pictured this problem in their own ways, but sadly, the number of smokers sometimes seems to grow, and grow, without anything to stop it.
I think this piece has its message bright enough to be seen, because death is just something hurried up by one bad behavior - smokeing.
You've pictured everything very well. The dark background adds some mistery to the whole deepness. The very bright cigarettes are outstanding which makes the watcher keep their attention on them.
It's also awesome that you've used a very tiny number of cigarettes to show a small period of time. More cigarettes may have slowly taken this photo out of its meaning.
Stunning work, well-deserved DD.:heart:
Let's just hope that people will give up smokeing in the end.
