Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man
"Life is like a box of chocolates. Cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So you’re stuck with this undefinable whipped mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down till there’s nothing left to eat. Sure, once in a while there’s a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee, but they’re gone too fast and taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits filled with hardened jelly and teeth shattering nuts. And if you’re desperate enough to eat those all you’re left with is an empty box filled with useless brown paper wrappers." - CGB Spender
On our trip to Toronto, Matt and I lucked into finding these Sideshow X-Files figures at Silver Snail Comics on Queen Street. I've wanted them for a while but online they cost a fortune. I bought Mulder and Matt bought the Cigarette Smoking Man (CGB Spender). I shot this last night as an experiment. I can't wait to take them outdoors and get a fog machine or something. :D
Setup: Two black t-shirts draped on a table and box. SB-600 shot from behind and through some burning incense wafted around in the air. I had Matt hold a small lantern camera right to light his face a little so it wasn't just a solid silhouette. Post-processed a bunch.
