  • New York based photo editor and photographer Kathy Lo will now be contributing on a weekly basis to HUH. Each week, Kathy will curate a series of pictures based around a specific theme, the first of which is smokers. Here's what Kathy has to say about this first installment.

    "These photos remind me of the times when I used to smoke inside my tiny bedroom, or on my bed, or on my bike, or on just about anything really; I would always have a cigarette in my hand or mouth. There's something about the motion, the way it hangs in your mouth that I found therapeutic. I used to smoke a lot, too much in fact, especially Marlboro Reds. Though I'm glad to say that I successfully quit a year ago." - Kathy Lo

    • Good one Kathy! Look forward to seeing the rest of your selected series on here... I recently had a similar obsession: http://cargocollective.com/domingo/421463/-in-darling-states (I'm close enough to quitting, but still enjoy too much sometimes).
