The things people do when on their significant other's request :))
Anyway, it is a really stunning image! The ash looks very similar to
some of the cigars I've smoked (ex. King Edward's) and yet different
from some others (Romeo & Juliet). It probably depends on the way the
machine stuffs the tobacco in there.
5 months... I think it's worth the wait, esp. if you forget about it
after the first few weeks :)
