About the Book
Street photography, more than any other type of photography, has allowed me to capture the vanishing essences of the city where I live. The legacy of more than 15 years of photographic work in Havana is a rich amalgam of contrasts, and emotions.
This is my second Blurb book on the subject (the first being Street Photography Havana b&w, 2014), and on this occasion I have chosen color photography as the main expression language. I photographed at different times during the day, starting at dawn through sunrise, then during most of the morning, extending some times into the so-called “bad light” hours of noon and early afternoon (which are great for strong contrasts), and finishing close to sunset. Most of the work shown in the book was done in Old Havana and Centro Habana, among the most colorful municipalities in the city because of people, daily activity, and/or architecture. The effects of time and decay on buildings is a plus when considering the contexts.
