Stray Dog
La Havana & Viñales , Cuba 2004
Stray Dog group as the stray dog that suddenly dashed across the street and forced my car into an accident while on our way to see my friend Fidel. That very day we counted over 20 along the street. From the very beginning of my career, I’ve loved photographing stray dogs, I’ve a penchant for them, and I see myself in their constant wondering. Along with the class we decided that they deserved that privilege although I had to pay the dear consequences of a major frontal accident with another vehicle.
An interesting mix of talented students from different countries eager to learn and share.
We walked, photographed a lot including on the streets the mythical Havana and the magic Cuban countryside. We also trekked and went horse back riding in Viñales, smoked hand rolled cigars, drunk rum and tasted the famous suckling pig prepared by Fidel.
Good photographs and fond memories, another chapter of my Cuban life shared with each one of them. Once again has been a great privilege. EB
