Cigar Desktop Images

As of late, I have been trying to add a sort of fun and artistic cigar photo to each review. The idea is to break the monotony that is the same simple picture of the band, over and over again. While taking some of these fun photos I came up with some that I really like and use as a desktop background on a few computers. Feel free to do the same.

All pictures were taken with a small point and shoot (nothing fancy) so the resolution on the larger image is the best I can do. Click the picture to enlarge.

   I have noticed the neat pictures. I think it does add a little to the review, if only on entertainment. I don’t remember seeing the NUB doing a handstand (ashstand?). But it’s cool. Keep it up.

   Good idea with the desktop photos! If my Giants didn’t win the Superbowl, I’d definitely be using one of your Oliva photos.

   Nice pics.
   The best one IMO is Nub 464 Habano Torpedo - Photo 1. Keep it up

    I see a contest. How about best pic (creative, beautiful, artistic, etc.) as judged by Walt wins some sort of schwag. Would be fun to see what everyone comes up with and see different styles and beautiful sticks.
