"no joke! smoking is hazardous!"

Even a fool should know by now...

Have a happy healthy April FOol's Day!:-)

(East Point Road, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong)

Spotlight Theme - Fuji X-Pro1 Impressions

Fujifilm X-Pro1 1/85 second F/1.4 ISO 400 53 mm (35mm equiv.)

x-pro1 | smoking

I do not regard myself as a photographer. I'm an ordinary man but extraordinarily obsessed with capturing all the memorable scenes that I encounter in my everyday life. It's like an excited traveller craving to record his memorable journey in a memorable way, but in my case, it's the journey of my life ... If I can record my encounters in such a way that they leave an image on the mind of myself and other viewers, it's a tremendous joy and some accomplishment...
In terms of photography, I'm trying to preserve the moments as my eyes see "something" and my heart feels it too. As such, I seldom feel interested in planned, arranged or manipulated photographs...

Wow, that is earth shaking! A great shot, Hugo!

Ha, love the 'meeting' between lil' & giant cigarette and if the result down here is a metaphor of what smoking does inside, hey i'm glad i'm a non-smoker since my first day on this planet ;) Great sharpness & detail not forgetting the super natural crop. And now, a great week ahead for you & us all, dear H*

Did she just kick that bollard over ?! If so, I'd think twice about giving her health advice and quietly move on.

A perfect composition for April fools day... :-) Even if there is a part of reality concerning the devastation which makes the tabacco in our body in that symbolic image !!
I'm happy to stop smoking long, long time ago....
