EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Rod Shone captures the essence of Havana, Cuba in 2009 with its iconic old American car cruising down the colorful streets. The vintage vehicle, a symbol of Cuba's rich history and enduring spirit, stands out against the backdrop of vibrant buildings and bustling city life.
The image transports us back to the twentieth century, a time when these classic cars ruled the roads of Havana. Each car tells a story of resilience and ingenuity as Cuban mechanics have kept them running for decades despite limited resources.
The bright colors of the car and surrounding architecture add to the lively atmosphere of this historic city. The sun shines down on the scene, casting a warm glow over everything it touches.
As we gaze at this snapshot in time, we can almost hear the sounds of salsa music playing in the distance and feel the energy that pulses through Havana's streets. It is a reminder that while much has changed in Cuba over the years, some things remain constant - like these beautiful relics from another era.
Rod Shone's photograph is not just a stunning visual display; it is also a tribute to Cuban culture and heritage. It serves as a reminder of how art can capture moments in time and preserve them for future generations to appreciate.
