This simple photograph could answer a simple question: what is a Cuban taxi? First we need an automobile, and in Cuba’s case most of them are old American cars. Then we need a magnetic sign that is wired to the electrical system. And finally, a small Cuban flag pennant – the more worn, the better. I include all three subjects here – barely suggesting the curving roof of the old blue car, adding the sign and wire, and finally catching the frayed end of the Cuban flag pennant as it flutters in the wind. The image is made up of the three primary colors – blue, yellow, and red – all of which blend seamlessly into a harmonious whole.
