Smoking Girls? A Fetish? Art?
I don't smoke; I hate cigarettes and also I do think that smoking girls are not attractive at all; but Alfred Himmelweiss thinks exactly the opposite and here is the site: Zigarettenmaedchen.de
There galleries full of smoking girls, you can also participate the art...
A young woman is framed mid picture, she is visible from the waist up, she is clearly sitting down. I should mention here that she is fully clothed, wearing the sort of clothes people also wear when they're not sitting in front of cameras...
She lights a cigarette, the camera unimpressed. She smokes, the camera doesn't flinch. It remains impassive as the cigarette gets slowly shorter. The young woman is finding that these three minutes are actually much, much longer than three minutes usually are. She fidgets. She looks away. Then she stubs out the cigarette and the camera suddenly relents the film is finished.
...
Alfred Himmelweiss's ZigarettenMaedchen provide an oasis of "realness" in the heartland of untrustworthy information. It's the real thing; no faking, no re-touching, no posing (none of the girls manage to keep up the bravado that they show whilst lighting up). There's no hidden agenda, no pop-up advertising, no questions asked. Everyone concerned knows the terms of the deal and everyone delivers. You watch, she smokes. And you catch the briefest of glimpses into a real person. Make the most of it on the web, it may be the only chance you get...
