You're shooting with the best optics that modern 35mm film technology affords. Why not use the best emulsions available? Even allowing for the vagaries of web transmission, the color balance is off here, the dynamic range limited, and what might have been an engaging image is overwhelmed by the mediocrity of its reproduction. And I am simply and incandescently green (as is the white balance of this image) with envy that this jaundiced chap is eating as well as he is, and boozing on white plonk, as well. Cheers!

This was shot at the Cafe Amelie, in Paris. This man was eating his lunch and reading. I was struck with the colors. I hope someone enjoys. Comments appreciated.
