  • Cuba 29 - Can Man

    This guy was delving through a pretty disgusting dumpster to get a few ali cans out. I shoved the camera across the bin and pressed the shutter. I gave him a couple of CUC, but I wished I hadn't as he shook my hand with his slimey dumpster grip! Thank god for wet wipes and alcohol gel, I must keep the E-M1 clean....

    Flies in the dumpster.

    Looks like a war zone, not the usual 'holiday' snaps I get to see, that's for sure.

    Think I'll cross Cuba off the must visit destinations.

      Even to the blast tape on the windows! I really don't think I'd want to go there for a holiday, either... As for shaking hands with him - yuk!

      I've been through some bad parts in Detroit, these are a bit reminiscent of them. They used to sell tee-shirts there that carried the legend "I'm so bad I vacation in Detroit." BT, I think you need one, with Havana substituted!

        The road debris is left over from the mains water pipe replacement program, it did look exactly like a war zone at times in the back streets!

          I'm sure it was an unpleasant experience but sometimes you have to suffer for your art and the shot was well worth it!
