News and tobacco kiosk in Sofia, Bulgaria, early 1970. Taken with my 1 with (not Plus) film; no meter (I used the metering hints inside film boxes in those days, essentially Sunny 16).

I worked in Sofia for 4 months at that time, so plenty of time to get to know the communist world a little. The adventures there are described in a series of blog posts starting at https://unsustainableideas.wordpress.com/2020/07/08/my-life-in-computers-5a-icl-system-4-and-bulgaria/ .



Black and white photo, taken in bright sunshine in winter on what is obviously a cold day, showing a "PressPoint" (name in Cyrillic text) selling postcards, newspapers, cigarettes etc. There are several people, all in heavy coats; one woman wears a head scarf. Two telephone boxes on the right of the picture are in use and a woman is waiting her turn.
