Cienfuegos, Cuba. February, 2012


¡Qué chicas! I saw these young ladies sauntering and giggling their way down a quiet street in the lazy southern Cuban town of Cienfuegos and wanted to take their picture. But I hesitated. Then I remembered I wasn’t in the United States and I approached them. No problem. They seemed completely unselfconscious, happy to oblige. Another example of how nice, friendly and open people were all throughout this country, much to my amazement and delight. And don’t you love how, even though these girls are in school uniforms, they distinguish themselves with different colored bookbags, sunglasses, hair treatments? They know, as we all should, that accessories make the outfit.
