Cuba

Scan-140119-0002

I tend to agree with the photographic philosophy of letting your photos “sit.” I don’t lean them back the La-Z-Boy, peel open a TV dinner and work on their inner spudliness. But i like to let time pass between shooting my images and editing them. In theory the practice removes the excitement of “the moment” and allows for a more objective assessment of the “goodies.” You become lean, mean, and focused on nixing everything in between. Rationale aside, my family would say it’s just an excuse to be lazy. Case in point, Cuba, a killer trip that’s now surfacing after a year of “sitting.” Blame it on the embargo.

More Cuba after the break.

  1. I absolutely love the pink car on the pink background. It’s perhaps on of my all time favorite shots! Your tagging game, on the other hand, is lacking. You would think after 20 years you would know how to spell my name correctly. Scrub.Let.

  2. Brilliant. Takes me back to the places we visited instantly. My favorite are the “sports” series starting with the guy with the baseball bat and shadow right on through the boxing photos. Love the blue shirt in the image three photos from the end of the post. Also love the kid with the handgun. I think I am particularly handsome while smoking a cigar…might take it up if I could just remember not to inhale. Thanks for the memories….

  3. Actually I must downloaded the cigar portrait. I think it would be a perfect photo for my Vimeo and Flickr profile. Might also work as my LinkedIn profile photo….or maybe not 🙂

  4. It’s getting better all the time
    better, better, better
    It’s getting better all the time
    better, better, better
    Getting so much better all the time.

    I think they’re ALL AMAZING! So much subtlety in each imagine…takes time to study each one. I keep going back again and again!

    “I think I am particularly handsome while smoking a cigar…might take it up if I could just remember not to inhale.” Uh, yeah…best leave the cigar toking to the professionals! Pass the ambien, please!
