A group of photographers cast long shadows against the wall of the El Morro Castle while waiting for the sun to set over the Malecon in Havana, Cuba.
Perched on the promontory on the opposite side of the harbor from Old Havana it can be viewed from miles around as it dominates the port entrance.

Beautiful photos once again, Ron. I especially love the first one. 🙂
Thanks so much Cathy.
Love the shadows Ron!
Thank you Tina. It was surreptitious. I just happened to turn around and there we all were!
Great ideas for shots – the two together tell a story, and you definitely fulfilled the essence of the background challenge.
Thanks Carol. BTW, Cuba is fabulous for photographers. You should go!
Amazing silhouette
Thank you so much.
Great pics for the challenge, Ron. That first one is just amazing.
Thank you. Doesn’t compare to your chef’s apron. 🙂
Hehehe
I LOVE that first picture! Awesome.
Thank you and thanks for visiting.
Love both! I visited Cuba a few years ago loved being reminded of it with these photos.
Thanks. I hope you enjoyed Cuba as much as we did.
To be somewhere where ” No Starbucks, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Target, Walmart, etc” can be found sounds truly amazing. Somewhere that eats fresh and local and supports the local economy.
That is Cuba for sure, but, of course, there is a downside. Cubans don’t have the freedom they would like and deserve to have and lack the variety of goods and services. Nonetheless, Cubans have a wonderful spirit.
