Dancers in Havana

[The_Traveler]

A year or so I was in Havana with a friend, shooting with a local pro photographer who arranged for some members of the corps de ballet to pose in the street for us.
I'm not much interested in shooting with flash or posed photos at all so I shot around the edges and had a good time.

The young dancers were lovely and graceful in every way. We shot first along the Malecon (the boulevard that runs along the harbor) where the traffic pretty much ignored us.
(the major issue was editing the occasional pedestrian tourist out of the shot.)

and then moved into the old parts of Havana.
The poses weren't much for me so I tried to catch the expressions on the onlookers.

The black and white shows a scene and then the color photo is like a reality check. Haha. Nice photo set. =]
