Street Photography ~ Old Havana (Part 3)

in #streetphotography6 years ago (edited)

This is my entry for today´s #streetphotography contest hosted by @juliank.

I have posted often about my November 2016 trip to Old Havana (La Habana Vieja),
a remarkable city and a photographer’s dream. We ventured deep into Old Havana trying to
mingle with the locals. We found a local bar, drank, smoked cigars and just watched.

Here is another photo that I feel captures perfectly life in Old Havana
(sorry for the photo quality).

That's a great one! I see life on the left side, and stillness on the right. Lucky we have cell phones so we can move around while talking. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks man. So true about that, good catch. Thank god for Iphones!

I remember this picture you took, it is one of the best from Cuba, so many things going on in every day life in Havana. Thanks brotha!

Thanks man. I love this shot and wish I had a better camera for a higher def shot. Remarkable place.

This pictures should have won the contest. May because you are only using a phone and not a camera.

Awesome capture of typical Cuba´s street life. And thanks for the mention, means a lot! :))

Its quite remarkable.. I could spend a month taking photos there. Must go back (if trump lets us). You have great blogs, especially Cuba.

Thank you so much armentor :) And I agree, Cuba is a remarkably photogenic country. We only stayed for some 5 days but ended up having literally thousands of photos :) I hope it will be easier for you guys from the US to travel to this extraordinary Caribbean country.

So true. Hopefully I can get out there next years. If not direct, through Mex.

You are so kind! Thanks a lot! ❤ We really appreciate it:)

You're welcome. I miss Cuba!

Did you feel safe being there?

For the most part, yes. However, we were in a large group of guys and had a handler most of the time.

great post dear

Thank you!

Interesting street photo. Beautiful colored houses in the picture. In each country there are rich and poor people. But everyone wants to be happy!

Great points. Yes the people of Cuba seemed generally happy and they were vary kind.

Looks like life there is free to my friend, do you also like Old Havana?

Yes Old Havana was a great city and the people were kind.

long and clear view

Thank you.

Looks beautiful, quite similar too

Thank you.
