Photographer’s Note

Thanks to An for putting me right on the street name. Taken right near the top of it near the university in Vedado. Another one that I like because of the extent to which it shows everyday life in Cuba.

Hi Richard

I like the old world charm, of this scene, (even though it is in the New world). Perhaps a bit more sharpness? Good work overall.

Very interesting from cuba. Nice street shot and of course the inclusion of the old chevy is really something special. tfs Richard

Hi Richard,
What a fantastic old car a "Chevrolet 1953" more than fifty old!!! Excellent depth through the very long street, lovely and calm picture with lovely colours, nice composition too.
Have a nice weekend,
John.

Another well scanned image - I like the 50's feel the car gives the shot :)

Hi Richard, A nice capture of the daily life on the street of the famous city. A well composed picture with nice perspective view and the repetition pattern of the windows and balcony. A well taken picture.

Hi Richard,
Nice street scene with the typical old cars that pass through the streets of Havana. Maybe I'm wrong but I think the right name is San Lazaro; it's the street that goes right in front of the University.
Regards,
Rafael
