Ashes of Relaxation Spiral Notebook

Everyone seems to have their own cigar lighting ritual; some cut, some punch and others just bite off the end prior to lighting. I prefer to warm my cigar over a flame so as not to overheat the barrel and bring out the harshness of the tar in the leaves. There are some that just like to draw off of the cigar while lighting with a match. I say, each to their own. One thing that we all share in common however, is that once lit, a cigar provides a very relaxing experience that goes well with a drink. There is no better way to unwind at the end of the day than to light a nice cigar and sip on some whiskey.

By David Morefield I started photography for a couple of reason, the main reason was for the pure enjoyment of creating something beautiful. In my past, I have seen some of the greatest horrors known to man, so finding other images to place into my head has been therapeutic. I call it "Image Replacement Therapy." Over time, I had some people ask about buying prints, so I started posting prints for sale and this is how Fluffyshotme Photography was born. I prefer to go out and capture whatever strikes me in the moment and if others like it, then great. My photography is more for me to appreciate, but if others can get enjoyment out of my work, then that brings me a sense of fulfillment. I am interested in travelling the world....
