Description Sometimes we are lonliest in a crowd.

Cuban dance hall, Havana. This was the real thing, not one of the shows put on for tourists. Very long story how I ended up at this dance and got to sit in with the band. Maybe I'll write it in my journal sometime.

By the way, please relate the story of how you came to sit in with the band... Pretty please!

Ok I will. I need some time to sit down and write because it will be quite long and involve my take on the music scene in Cuba which was really not what I expected.

Now here's an image that repays a little time to study it. Beautifully composed and captured. The B&W conversion works really well to focus the attention. A real photographic study of the highest order...
