The Cafe Louvre was a favorite hangout of Franz Kafka, but it is only partly retro in feel. The crowd there today is relatively young, and basically there to party. I shot this photo with my Lomo 135BC, and was the first Lomo shot that I used my Polysix light meter with, as the exposure guide on the camera was useless at such a late hour of the day. Even then, I ended up with a major light leak on the photo, so I cropped it to square format.

The Narodni Trida tram stop is actually not on Narodni Trida, but rather on Spalena next to Tesco's. A few meters behind me, the tracks curve west onto Narodni Trida at the corner of Spalena and Narodni Trida. The tram pictured is a CKD-built Tatra T6A5, similar to the T6A4 trams used in Portland, Oregon. They were some of the first new trams built after the fall of Communism, being built mostly in the mid-1990s.
