    Nice execution, impressive art direction. However, if I read the visual, the message would be reversed: cigarette’s smoke becomes money! plz tell me if I’m wrong.
    I noticed there’s credit for the photographer, yet I think this visual involved more CG than photography. Did Mr. Awad execute it as well? bravo Abdullah.

    sometimes guys, we create something, we love it and then, comes someone to tell you it’s been done before. Then you are pissed off and think it’s different. You can defend it (if you are not guilty of CopyCat) by saying to yourself “ideas fly in the air”. But here, now way that you plucked it from the air: you went directly to the copier machine!!!!
