the strongest remain
You know your guide and driver are reading the room when they make non-routine stops (without even being asked) – for important things like roadside ruins or newly blossoming almond trees or the light hitting a hillside town in just the right way – so the photographers could pile out and do our things.

palatino
Nights in Cuba were a little disconcerting. The blackouts could (and did) happen all over the place, for random amounts of time. And then there’d be the one place (like you can see here) that was literally the only bright spot on the entire block. It’s just the way of things.

This is a typical scene in Cuba – some ad hoc sports going on in a vacant lot, laundry drying on a balcony rail, and a random guy hanging out.

do not go gently
I was looking back through the images I made a few years ago on a photo trip to Havana and found some that didn’t catch my attention at the time.
Like this one, which I made on the first night in the country, of a vintage car driving in front of the Hotel Inglaterra. As we explored the neighborhood around the Parque Central, rolling blackouts rolled around. It was a little surreal, the way the buildings would be flooded with light one minute and then gone when the lights went black. It was a regular thing, day and night, and I never got used to it.
