Did you do that editing on the phone, too?

Yes, I use an in phone editing app to create these pics.

I've never really thought about taking Cigar pics, but put a little thought into it and come up with a few good ideas and get them shot.

It's a great place and I'm lucky enough to be about 3.5 blocks walking distance from it.

Great shots, Mark. Beautiful colors.

No offense man, but I really don't feel like a cell phone picture meets the "requirements" of the thread. I love seeing a cigar pic as much as the next guy, but this thread is for the really well planned and executed photos:2

That being said, I'd love to see some higher quality pics of your cigars etc.

I've tried to format these photos so they can be screen savers. Larger sizes are available here. Just click on the all sizes button at each picture.
