Maybe the most famous pub in Prague, at least according to the tourist literature, is U Fleku. This pub supposedly used to be frequented by Jaroslav Hasek (like most of the older pubs in Prague, actually), and is a well-known brew pub as well. Their specialty is this very-rich, sweet dark beer. It isn't cheap, but neither is the pub, which is rarely frequented by locals anymore. The shot glasses in this photo have Becherovka in them, which is also passed around in this pub as if it were beer. It's not beer, though. I have photos elsewhere of the distillery for this herbal liquor, which usually has an alcohol content of about 38%, more powerful than most vodka or tequila, although there are some weaker, sweeter versions of it. In reality, though, the full-powered stuff is also pretty sweet.

Here's another underexposed winter shot, this one taken in Sidliste Haje.

This is one of two photos that I took of Pankrac, in uncertain lighting conditions, so I ended up bracketing even with the Lomo. This one I shot at f11 and 1/250, I think, which made it too dark technically, but better in some ways than the f11 1/125 bracket, which was the other one.
