I do too... specially when they are impolite and blow their smoke on our face...
Very good blending, author!

Idea is ok, but imo the cigarette looks a bit too blurred. Is it possible to make the edges somewhat sharper? Good luck!

i did edges blur coz camera is focusing on that Character...... hope it is ok

Author, you're very right about the focus , but then I'd make the ash also a bit out of focus (maybe it can go from bit blurred to sharp), so that there's more connection with the cigarette. Good luck!

nice idea ....... and nice blending ....... all the best .........

Best of luck.
