RE: Original Art Photography Series by @velimir #191 'Sadness Of Ash'

in #art7 years ago

I'm partially in disagreement with you and, although you may not believe it, I'm not an inveterate smoker.

First I give you all the right in terms of advertising and how entrepreneurs enjoy the misfortune of our lungs through their products. Today the cowboys are left behind and the girls in bikinis show you how "cool" and strangely "refreshing" is smoking, but the reality behind cameras is another.

However, there is something that we cannot deny: without demand there is no offer and everyone chooses how to die (not literal, you understand).

I cannot do like the rest of Steemians who come to the comments just to praise your photograph although they may not understand how much wonder it hides, but I don't consider it appropriate to stick to your position without reservation. Smoking, for some people, represents an escape, a moment alone, a time to think. Are bad? No. Are they idiots? Maybe, but not always. Alcohol, coffee, cigarettes, among other "noble drugs" destroy our organism maybe slower but with the same efficiency. How do we do with the other industries?

For me photography surpasses sadness, maybe that's why I like it so much. The blur of the window is like cigarette smoke that has not yet been smoked. A passageway to reality. The ability to open between colors. The desire to remain calm inside but enjoy the disruptive landscape outside.

Balance? No ... Indeed the photograph is tilted to the right, but: that doesn't force me to see it from another perspective if I turn with it?

I apologize for so much dissertation, I really enjoyed this post and I let myself go. As I always tell you, I thank you for sharing @velimir!

Not at all :) I love your comment. Thank you!
And you're right, as to what smoking represents to people. The question is if they are deceived! ;)
