Been wanting to do one of these ever since I discovered Chris Jordan's work several years ago. Only recently have I come up with an automatic technique the sort of approaches what I would like to see. My motivation for this piece is for what it caused my dad to live through his last few years. He suffered with cancer twice and other health related illness before his death. Surprising, he didn't have any lung issues, but you and me both know cigarettes can cause illnesses above and beyond just heart and lung ailments. Anyway, please don't ever learn by the school of hard knocks when it comes to cigarette smoking. I believe in free will but that assumes folk are informed as well. Smoke at your own peril.

reference information can be found here.

I think this makes for a strong image with great visual impact.

Thanks for the feedback frdjohns. Just hope folk don't get into the trap of smoking these cancer sticks.

This is so cool - it's like having to images in one.
The top of the photo has a really pleasing abstract effect and the foreground is the sobering reality that this is a deadly illusion.

I like it very much!

Thanks Ace; if it can help keep folk from smoking the cancer sticks, then that's a good thing.

Just lost my best friend of nearly 50 years to lung cancer. Not a pretty sight.

Sorry for you Bryston. If I had a magic wand, there would be no more cancer sticks on this planet, but then I would be a hypocrite since I do believe in free will. We are here to make choices, both good and bad. I've made a heck of a lot of bad choices in my life, but, thank God, cigarette smoking isn't one of them.
