Description
We met with this Cuban in the old Habana. Under his hat, he has everything to attract tourists: a jacket, a flower at the buttonhole, a tie with its scarf-pin, and, the most important: a huge cigar… which he doesn’t smoke! But the images that the tourists are making from him give him a substantial income. Comments, as always, appreciated.
Voici un Cubain que nous avons rencontré dans le vieux Havane. Sous son chapeau, il y a tout le nécessaire pour attirer les touristes : veston, fleur à la boutonnière, cravate avec son épingle, et surtout un énorme cigare… qu’il ne fume pas! Les images que les touristes font de ce Monsieur lui amènent des ressources non négligeables. Vos commentaires seront, comme toujours, les bienvenus.

"A Cuban trumpet-player"
Techdata: Nikon D50 with Nikkor 3.5-4.5/18-70 Pro ED at 34mm, 1/400s at f/10, ISO 200, no flash. I made two portraits of this man with slighly different adjustments. On this one the eyes were too dark, so the eyes of the other portrait were used and pasted here. But it was also necessary to use two Adjustment Layers: one of Curves actiong only on the eyes and the other, Exposure, on the sole BG image. Note: the Exposure adjustment appears only in Photoshop CS2. As a Layer, it exists only in the CS3 version.

Impressionnant personnage (et cigare). Portrait très réussi. J'adore la lumière à travers son panama.
