This shot was one of my more memorial images from Cuba. This was us coming back home after our first day exploring the city and we had to take two cabs back. The weather was perfect so we decided to both get convertible vintage cabs. If anyone plans on going to Cuba, this is a must for any tourist. Cruising through Havana with the top down in a 70yr old Chevy is a truly unique experience to this country.
Aside from the general experience of these cab rides, convertibles also give you the ability to shoot better drive by photos of the city. I was able to stand up and shoot around, which was where I was able to get this shot. The second half of our crew were in the pink car in front of us and I was able to stand up, tilt my LCD screen down and shoot over the windshield to get this image of what I feel like perfectly encapsulates our feelings at this time in our lives. We were all hyped on walking around this amazing city all day then to top it off by hanging out of these cars was a truly memorable experience that we won't forget. Another thing I love about this photo is that you can see all of their faces in the rearview mirror also.
I have a blog post with all my Cuba photos coming soon!
