[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Indonesian Government is very heavy on illegal dugs, maybe to heavy. Tobacco is very cheap, even well known 'Western brands' With the Health system as it is a lot of people will suffer in the future if not all ready.

It's raining, you can just see it.
Converted to BW, increased contrast a little, resized.

Hi Nico,
An interesting journalistic shot here. Well composed and like the slight angle to the composition. You've processed this quite well in black and white and like how it fades to black towards the top, creative and well done!

Hi Nico,

Guess you need to have been there to connect this photograph to smoking! I mean, Djarum Super is typically Indonesian and the packs of Marlboro in the window are too small here to carry this compo. But I've been there, so I get your point ;-). Yep, cheap tobacco. And Marlboro etc copied rather well, though a bit sharper than back home.

Greetings!
Dennis

Hi Nico !
sharp image. Good focus.

Best regards,
Daniel.
