Ok this assignment was difficult for me... so please be nice...
The assignment was to create a photo essay or a series of photos that explores or describes something that bothers you...

We could use Photoshop on this one and it could use a variety of tools including old photos...

Wow, powerful! I remember my great grandma sitting with her back to the door hooked up to the oxygen tank trying to light a match to light her cigerette. She and my grandmother died of lung cancer. Both my parents have quit smoking for around 17 to 18 years. I have never smoked. Thanks for sharing a difficult subject. :o)

Puff the magic "drag-on"...the killer by the "C". So sad but true and I know many who are still addicted and will not quit. Thank you for sharing your sadness.

What a difficult story to write and chronicle with pix. The last one is so powerful. As a former smoker, too, I hope you are able to show your essay far & wide.
