Havana Walls




These were taken last summer with the Sony NEX 7 and the NEX 5n in Havana just walking around. The middle picture was taken as we were walking to dinner at Havana's most famous restaurant, La Guarida, where Beyonce and Jay-Z had a fifth wedding anniversary dinner the last day or so. Their visit caused quite a scene, not only in Havana but in the US as well, where various internet sites wondered how they could get away with going to Cuba when the average US citizen is banned from travel there. Beyonce also has an upcoming concert in Miami, and various sources were talking about whether her visit would impact ticket sales in this wildly anti-Castro part of the country. One of the things I love about Cuba is how polarizing it is. Almost no one is neutral about the place.
