About I walked through the town early in the morning so people were sleepy and didn't notice me with my camera!

Bolzano is a beautiful town in the Italian Dolomites, just a short drive from the Austrian border. In fact the inhabitants are German speaking and the place is very different from the rest of Italy. But they still drink great italian coffee!

This is the first time I use colour film with my rollei. Thanks due to Bea Frideli for the suggestion! What is amazing is that when my Rollei was manufactured in 1939, colour film didn't even exist!!! But the design was 'future proof'!

Wonderful slice-of-life Omar!

I like how you tinted the mat
the color of coffee.

The quality and the colours are amazing. Nice how the light falls down on the woman. Apart from the horrible dust bin a nice street photo.

Hi Karina,
Its true this film has great colour reproduction. At first I regretted the dustbin, (but I would have lost the moment if I tried to get rid of it) but now it doesn't seem so bad. Its kind of like a metaphor for how she feels before her morning coffee!
Regards,
Omar
