You're a good sport, Sir.... I mean, Jhon! Hah well that's good I mean what can you do at this point, getting upset isn't going to change anything. Pour a scotch, light a cigar ... carry on.

They have before. And it SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCKS. You don't wanna see a big fat guy like me, pissed off, missing out on one of my top-5-in-Havana-foods!!!

Sorry, Doc, you're right. At first glance, I was paying attention to the clothes being worn, not the background. Yes, my mistake - as you said, at the gala dinner at the Melia Cohiba hall. It was later on that night we went to Up & Down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckSARTech Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 And also agreed. @Ethernut's pictures are a wonderful step above the usual i-Potato pictures. I've gone down with a digital SLR at times as well, but I don't have the skillset to do all the tinkering and messing with things to chance colour saturation, ISO, aperture, etc., etc. (nor the time or patience to do that). But I love pictures like these such as what he's done (and similar to Tony's / "TDLPhoto"'s in the past - helps capture the juxtapositional nature of Cuba so well. The beauty mixed with the ugliness, the sadness mixed with the pleasure in everyday-life there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethernut Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I thought this was an interesting juxtaposition of architecture... The housing common to Havana Vieja along the Prado with a makeshift building from shipping containers built in the nest of a once expired structure.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethernut Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Mom, the little ones, and grandma... @jacketfanspotted this shot (a little further in the shot above) and the light was just right to highlight the matriarch.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethernut Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I really liked the paintings on the bottom. These little hand painted canvases were purchasable all over and were in the neighborhood of $35 CUC (although they could probably be had for $20). I came close to picking one up. Love to hang it in my office.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
