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.

Havana. I saw the Italy-hat guy in Havana. You’ll just have to trust me on this.

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.

It wasn’t exactly soaring through the air, but it was also not quite earthbound. (Which is, now that I think about it, the way I feel a lot of the time.)

“In New York, demonstrators gathered in Bryant Park, holding signs reading ‘Unplug Elon’ and ‘I can read this because there used to be a Department of Education’.”
