"I previously visited the amazing island of Cuba in 2009 and had wanted to return ever since. This time I wanted to spend more time in Havana so I was thrilled to be able to visit again in March this year. I've traveled to a great deal of places that have since changed dramatically, China, East Berlin, USSR; all in the 80's, and so I know how Communist places can change quite suddenly. Cuba still looks like a time warp to the visitor. It is stuck in the 1950's with no advertising billboards, few mobile phones, old classic cars, crumbling old buildings, and children playing football in the streets, all combining to make a great orchestra, perfect for capturing with Hipstamatic. I only had 3 days in Havana and I wished I had more. Cuba and India are my favorite countries for street photography."
