An old American car, Trinidad, Cuba

This weeks PhotoFriday is “Old Fashioned.” Here is my entry. You really can’t beat Cuba for that retro, old fashioned look, and here is a great example of a 1950’s American car, still apparently in use and in great condition.

Found Objects

Beach in Cuba not far from Trinidad, Cuba

In my mind I have it that I’m great at spotting tiny little details and photographing them. I assumed that would make this PhotoFriday challenge, “Found Objects,” to be easy. Turns out that I was wrong — there’s very little appropriate in my iPhoto library! But I found this image from my Cuba collection and quite liked the fanned… thing.

Please also vote for my entry in last weeks challenge, “The Good Life.” I’m entry number 254.

What is that?

Coffee beans, Cuba

This weeks PhotoFriday theme is “What is that?” Here is my entry.

The caption when you hover your mouse over the picture might be a bit of a give-away, but it’s not entirely obvious what it’s a picture of, so I think it fits the theme. It was taken in Cuba.

Please also vote for my entry in last weeks challenge, “Misty.” I’m entry 196 (–> Stephen <–).

The Machine

Bulldozer in Santa Clara, Cuba

This weeks PhotoFriday theme is “The Machine.” Here is my entry.

Clearly this is a bulldozer, a machine. What makes this the machine is that it was used in the battle of Santa Clara by Che Guevara’s victorious soldiers. Obviously this picture was taken in Cuba.

Blessing

"Thank you" slates in a cemetary, Havana

This weeks PhotoFriday theme is “Blessing.” Here is my entry.

This was taken in Havana, Cuba. These slates can be found in a cemetery and are blessings for a woman thought to bring good luck and fertility. (If I remember correctly!)
