Hmmm.......equating Hitler with Che. Interesting knowledge of history you are demonstrating. Is it Che's genocidal activities that are in line with Hitler's, or perhaps his desire to conquer and subjugate vast areas of the globe or is it Che's belief in a "master race" that's in line with Adolf's......or maybe it''s just the fact they both have moustaches you are referring to?

well, I meant that both were murderers,,, If you would like to take things literally,,,, you're in the wrong way, I did not say that Che killed the same amount of people as Hitler, I said both are assacinos, only that hitler is not in the headlines as a fucking hero as che .. If you are offended, do not use it to try to say I'm dumb,. because I'm not,

I don't need to say you're dumb, you're doing a pretty good job of announcing it to the world yourself. Very interesting that you equate Che with Hitler purely on the grounds that they were both responsible for killing people. Why didn't you choose someone like Richard Nixon or General Pinochet? I'm pretty sure I understand where you are coming from. Che = Hitler (??????) and Richard Nixon = Mother Teresa, keeping the world tidy of all the poor people getting ideas above their station....am I right

well, the issue here is not Richard Nixon and General Pinochet, the subject and Che, and I think you should also be in trouble because you did not question people who commented also about? I think the ass here is you licking the bag this killer rapist racist and homophobic,..,you know read? if you can read, search about Brazil and what is happening here your illiterate,.. well actually you should not be better than him, I know what I'm talking about, my country is being devastated by this type of policy, and I'm not like Β you, you idiot

The issue here is not Che, the issue here is Hitler whom you have chosen as the closest historical figure to equate to Che (the validity of which I need not go into as your ignorance and bigotry is on display for the world to see). As for reading, I have read more than you can imagine on the subject and Che's record on killing is not in dispute. You are clearly a right wing zealot which for a normal thinking person is very hard to comprehend, it's something I can only attribute to ignorance, lack of education or product of a closed none functioning mind. You know what you're talking about? Of course you do.....we all know what you're talking about as well unfortunately.

well , first , I think that issue is no more or Che or hitler , , , it is that you got offended because many people said it was killer just like me, and of course , you already was almost exploding so I wrote at the right time that you were waiting for someone to vent his anger , I am not right and even left , I just do not agree with genocide, and before you judge me if I'm cult or not , ignorant or not , you do not know me , but you clearly communist, denounced his writing , and that I 'm intolerant ? hahhaha , , , come on , me and my friends here do not stop laughing at you ,
Β for someone to argue with a communist , no need to do much , not using the intelligence , . it just takes him to open his mouth to talk shit like you , I know very well the history of your favorite killer , .. talves is clear that , to be honest , I was wrong on saying that he is equal to hitler , hitler killed many , but if I knew that you would use that as a child who did poop in diapers , I would have used other examples : - )
but this argument that you used , I'm fanatical intolerant right , hahaha , it was great , and im intoletante ? anyone see our coments will see who is the bigot here . I do not criticize your art , I just said my opinion and my view on Che , is what I see and what I read , . and I read a lot, . different than you think ..
ok , now you can go change your diapers ,

I'm sorry but I'm not willing to continue a discussion with someone who cannot justify their position other than descending into the most purile of arguments. I will leave your comments here for the world to see. If you don't want to look like a childish idiot I suggest save your comments for your like minded "friends".

A murderer glorified by Hollywood, despised by those who lived through it. He is not a hero at least for freedom, Maybe for communism.

I'm actually more amazed by how the image was put together with all the stones. It must've taken quite some time to find all the right rocks, planning, and time to put it together.

Great picture

did you make the stone-mosaic, or just take the photo?

I am a man of many talents but I'm afraid creating mosaics is not one of them. I only took the photograph. It was really just a way of starting off my new series on Cuba, there cannot be a more iconic image than this one.

Nice capture, and a perfect image to open your Cuba account, as you say!

Well it just had to be, it's an image you see everywhere in Cuba.

'a legend of the people'?? i hate to disavow you of a romantic image, but che was nothing more than a brutal mass murderer. that his is the iconic face of castro's revolution is, in a twisted way, appropriate, but let's not confuse that with the romantic notion that he was a man of the people.

right, and Batista was a real crowd pleaser?

he may or may not have been i simply don't know (but I'll do some research), but that is not really germane to my point. if his 'predecessor' was an evil skunk does not mean that he gets a pass. there are absolutes. cold-blooded murderers, of any political side, should be equally reviled. so, whether batista was a slime is, at least as far as this discussion goes, irrelevant. che was a psycho and those who would lionize him should at least be aware of what he was - and wasn't. and he wasn't a romantic 'adventurer,' 'man-of-the-people' hero. he was a malevolent, cold-blooded, amoral murderer - and that stands regardless of who, or what, preceded him.
