As I’m sure everyone has heard, Haiti has been rocked with a 7+ earthquake. The country literally was leveled in just a few seconds with an estimated 45,000-50,000 already dead and a forecast of up to 100,000+ in total. No one knows for sure the exact damage and death tool but looking at the picture [...]
One thing about Cuba that’s like anywhere else in the Caribbean is that they have some awesome coastlines. The Caribbean has some of the best beaches in the world, with their blueish-emerald waters, with white sandy beaches, that make you feel like you’ve been transported into a postcard. The beaches in Cuba aren’t for surfing [...]
I’ve been following a photo blog from Thailand for some time now. Gavin Gough has a knack for getting images that most people only dream about. One thing I have seen him do is get an imagine of an object (person, car, bike exc) that is in focus while the background is blurred out. I [...]
This is the last of my 3 part series of Cuban cars from the 50′s. The above picture is one of my favorites because it shows not only the car but also conveys a timeless picture. I thought about turning this picture into a black and white because you wouldn’t have been able to tell [...]
This is Part II of the series of Cuban cars I shot while there. I can’t tell you enough how I could have spent my whole time in Cuba shooting nothing but cars the whole time. It was without a doubt one of the best things about Cuba for me. To see Part I, click [...]
One of the best things about going to Cuba was getting to see all the 1950 era cars roaming the streets. It was like going to a car show everyday! When the US enacted the embargo in 1960 the first thing to be cut off from Cuba was the automative industry. There are now imports [...]
“When in Rome do as the Romans do” is a pretty good philosophy to live by when traveling. One thing I wanted to learn while in Cuba was how to make the prefect mojito. In all of the countries I have been to, I have only had one great mojito. It was in a little [...]
Without a doubt Cuba’s most famous exports are its cigars and rum. I always wanted a Cuban cigar and got my first one when I was in Germany back in 2002. To be honest, they taste like sh*t but then again I don’t care much for cigars anyways. This didn’t stop me though from bringing [...]
One of the first things I wanted when I got to Cuba the first night was a beer! I knew I would have plenty of time to try all the Mojitos in the world there, as in the end I’m a beer man for life. I pretty much knew they wouldn’t have Bush beer there [...]

One thing that you will notice when arriving in Cuba is the propaganda of the revolution everywhere. Most noticeably pictures of Che Guevara, which you can’t hide from. There is God, your mother and then Che in Cuba (and on some days Che beats mother in the pecking order). He was the picture-perfect profile of [...]
