My first color roll,i processed it last night, kodak gold 400iso.
This café is struggling against the new french laws preventing people to smoke in public places,as the main concept is to smoke narguilet,the owner is in a problematic situation, you can smoke narguilet inside,but you have to go outside for smoke cigarettes,,,

I smoked a little bit the narguilet and that guy told me to respect the law (because it can be illegal) at the same time i shot.

That's a narguilet,in that café,everything is related to this even the decoration,the walls...
i shot wide open without flash, i don't know why, but there's a kind of yellow teint,maybe because of the film it's the first time i process and scan color film...

Nice shots (my favourite is the one with the portuguese painter saying you not to shoot), the yellow is due to the tungsten lamps, but you can easily correct it (if you want) in post production.

ok,but as the light is a part of the ambiance,i don't know if it would be a good idea, i'm glad my first processing is ok.I though it was caused by the brown color of the film.
That second picture is also my favorite,thanks
And the narguilet is not used to smoke drugs, it's used with aromatised tobacco, it's not a cofee shop.😀
 
is this similar to the middle eastern stuff, shisha(sp?)

my saudi friends smoke it occasionally and its quite nice to just relax and have a social smoke, though how bad it is compared to tobacco i think id rather not know ;D
 
I think it's quite similar,the name can be different according to the area of the world.
I don't smoke, i tried but i wanna stay healthy, studies show the effect of the narguilé smoke on lungs is even worst than tobacco,i think it's because the smoke goes through some water,It's not something people should smoke everyday imao.
