I'm taking a first aid/CPR course this weekend and am so looking forward to just collapsing into bed. Don't you love sleeping when you're tired? I think it's my favourite thing ever. Anyway, I had this whole other post planned for today, but it will have to wait. For now here are some pictures of cute kids in Cuba.. Oh and a bird. Almost all with the 85mm, I'll try to post settings tomorrow. I don't know most of these people, but I always asked the parents if it was ok.
These first 3 should really be a storyboard I guess, but I didn't get around to it. These boys were fascinated with the birds and puppies for sale. I love how one is grabbing the other's arm, so sweet.
This guy stopped me in the street and asked me to take his picture with his sandwich he was eating. It was a crowded street so I couldn't get back far enough to catch the sandwich, but I love his expression.
I love this outfit.. I think i'll try it out tomorrow ;)
These bycycle (bici) taxi's are very popular in Cuba, we take them all over the place.
Check out the legs on this 2 year old.. I'm so jealous.
This boy asked to have his photo taken when he saw the camera.. I love his serious look..
Sons of a friend.. Kristin actually took this, in AV mode. Loving their eyes here, and the oh so joyful expressions.
Street shot.
A special little baby, our friend's new nephew Dayson.
Baby at outdoor concert.
In the streets of old Havana.. We always tease Helen that this is her boyfriend :)
