T here are things in Havana that, no matter how hard you try to avoid them, always end up showing up in your photos. It happens to me all the time. I go out with an idea in mind, trying to focus elsewhere… and suddenly there they are: the bicycle taxis, the sharp shadows, the animals. It’s as if the city itself were reminding you of what’s really going on.

H ay cosas en La Habana que, por más que uno intente evitarlas, siempre terminan apareciendo en las fotos. Me pasa todo el tiempo. Salgo con una idea en la cabeza, tratando de enfocar hacia otro lado… y de pronto ahí están: los bicitaxis, las sombras fuertes, los animales. Como si la ciudad misma te recordara por dónde va la cosa.

| And in the end, you have no choice but to accept it. They’re part of the daily rhythm, of who we are. Honestly, far from bothering me, I really enjoy it. I always find something new in them. | Y al final uno no tiene más remedio que asumirlo. Son parte de la dinámica diaria, de lo que somos. La verdad, lejos de molestarme, lo disfruto mucho. Siempre encuentro algo nuevo en ellos. |

| Today I wanted to share a small sample of that reality I photograph almost without realizing it, but to which I dedicate everything. | Hoy quise traerles una pequeña muestra de esa realidad que fotografío casi sin darme cuenta, pero a la que le dedico todo. |
| I suppose, in a way, it’s also a way of preserving the city’s memory, just as it is. | Supongo que, de alguna manera, también es una forma de ir guardando memoria de la ciudad, tal como es. |
| Thank you, as always, for joining me and taking the time to view my work. Sending you a hug, and have a wonderful day 😉 | Gracias, como siempre, por acompañarme y tomarse el tiempo de ver mi trabajo. Les mando un abrazo y que tengan una excelente jornada 😉 |
