After brief introduction and random conversation, I have asked Andre for 5minutes of his time to execute a rapid photoshoot.\u00a0Total darkness, 40\u00b0 F, creepy corner, metal stairs &#8211; couldn&#8217;t ask for better studio! Andre expressed interest in photography as well so after brief photo chit-chat, we went to work. I always get the kick out of those cigar-puffing sessions. Even folks in the industry have a limit on how many times they can pull on the cigar to create that perfect, per photographer&#8217;s vision, cloud of smoke.<\/span><br \/>\n<\/br><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #333333;\">The vision &#8211; very simplistic setup to highlight facial expression and concentration, the act of lighting the cigar &#8230; and Andre&#8217;s signature &#8211; thick-frame glasses. Manual mode, high ISO (3200), quick adjustment to the focus point, external LED light, 10 frames &#8230; finito !<\/span><br \/>\n<\/br><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #333333;\">Please consider the following posts:<\/span><br \/>\n* <a href=\"http:\/\/cigarphoto.net\/blog\/category\/cigar-photographs\/viaje-oro-reserva-vor-no5\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Viaje Oro Reserva VOR No5<\/a><br \/>\n* <a href=\"http:\/\/cigarphoto.net\/blog\/category\/cigar-photographs\/viaje-exclusivo-shorts\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Viaje Exclusivo Shorts<\/a><br \/>\n* <a href=\"http:\/\/cigarphoto.net\/blog\/category\/cigar-photographs\/viaje-platino-reserva-dt\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Viaje Platino Reserva DT<\/a><br \/>\n<\/br><\/p>\n<pre style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><span style=\"color: #333333;\">- click on photographs (slideshow \/ EXIF)- <\/span><\/em><\/pre>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cigarphoto.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/DSC_3967.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[1729]\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1750\" title=\"Andre Farkas of Viaje (EXIF: Nikon D3 : 70mm f\/2.8)\" src=\"http:\/\/cigarphoto.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/DSC_3967-266x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"266\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cigarphoto.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/DSC_3967-266x400.jpg 266w, https:\/\/cigarphoto.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/DSC_3967.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 266px) 100vw, 266px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/cigarphoto.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/DSC_3951.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[1729]\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1749\" title=\"Andre Farkas of Viaje (EXIF: Nikon D3 : 70mm f\/2.8)\" src=\"http:\/\/cigarphoto.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/DSC_3951-266x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"266\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cigarphoto.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/DSC_3951-266x400.jpg 266w, https:\/\/cigarphoto.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/DSC_3951.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 266px) 100vw, 266px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8211; click on photographs (slideshow \/ EXIF)- &#8216;Cigar Industry In Focus&#8216; series is back and in full swing.
