Welcome Jim!

No, filming in public places is no problem. Atleast, in Lahore. In Islamabad; people are reserve and may frown at cameras so you have to rely on structures only :)

Good luck with your venture!

Thanks for the info and an interesting photo.

On a more broader note…I plan to travel to Lahore and Islamabad in several weeks. Is it difficult for Westerners, especially from the US, to film with a video camera or to take photographs in public?

Your site has been very inspirational for picture taking but I don’t wish to offend anyone by taking unsolicited photos.

umm.. if u have seen the buds of those plants.. they cut them from sides at night and throughout the night a thick blackish syrip (like a fat mosquito’s blood :D) pours out and sticks to the skin on the outside of bud.. that syrip is opium or afeem .. its an art really n requires gr8 care.. cut lagana n then collecting that syrip

churs is a hand-made creamy thing, as aamer rightly pointed out is same as hash but a refined product..ppl mix certain things in it like tobocco n a few other things that i have no clue about ..n it’s a bit stronger .. take a trip around UET n u ‘ll find ppl making it at night in naala’s n small dark pulli’s

hash and churs are same-
this lady is not addicted to any drug- I’m sorry if the title of this photos made you think like this.

excellent capture!

I’m confused…I know hashish is hash and afeem is opium…so could churs be…pot?

Jim, churs is a type of local drug.. something a bit different but from same family like marijuana, heroin.

ps: i used to goto UET and areas around it during my college days.. Singh Pura for example..which is one of the biggest adda of these unfortunate/forgotten people. Drug addiction is the worst thing that a human being can ever do to him/herself. Misery. The family suffers the most!
