This doesn't really say 'advertisement' to me unless it is an anti-smoking public service announcement. Since your heading suggests otherwise, I have to evaluate it as an actual ad for cigarettes. It doesn't work as an ad because the guy is squinty and unappealing. He doesn't appear to be enjoying himself. In other words, he does not make smoking look appealing.
Photographically, it is a kind of random looking snap shot with nothing of real interest to absorb the viewer. The background is messy and distracting. The focus isn't too sharp. It is very high contrast.

I thought the idea was to *promote* the product? |

Seems more like an anti-cigareet advertisement. Does a good job of creating a negative image around smoking.
It's pretty contrasty ... lights very light, and darks very dark. However if it were less, you'd lose the negative emotion. So I'm not sure I'd change it.
If your camera will support it, I would suggest a larger image. Use the whole 640 pixels. Larger photos are more impactful, their details are easier to see, and the thumbnails seem to work better. |

It doesn't look like he is enjoying it! That may not be the best way to advertise your product... |

for or against cigarrettes? the guys look doesn't make it seem appealing. :-) His look and the gloomy mood of the photo would make for a decent anti-smoking shot. |
