Havana. the streets

CUBA

At my insistence Osvaldo our taxi driver took us to an older section just off the main tourist area, dropped us off and left us to roam this particular neighbourhood. I must say, I was so, so visually excited and really overwhelmed that I know I missed some award winning shots....hee, hee :) It was a very old run down hood, and good news is that mostly everyone just ignored me and my camera. I have to say it again - I was at a loss of what to shoot!!
Yes, one day in Havana is simply not enough.

When I was a pilot I got to Havanna a few times...I'd love to go back as a tourist now...

I can imagine the whole kid in a candy shop feeling where everything looks great and you can't decide what to loot at first. Even a week is probably not enough time. Great shot of everyday people in their everyday environment. ~BV~
