CUBA SEGMENT 16 / FOTOFOLIO: BRUCE HENDERSON IN CUBA


In a socialist country there is no time for selecting one bird over another as the national feathery friend.  If such a title existed, the flamboyance of the peacock is our choice as it captures the colors and spirit of Cuba.  
Editor’s note: On a daily basis from June 1 thru June 30, 2015 Pillar to Post online magazine is featuring articles, photos and insights resulting from a recent group tour, an adventure we dubbed: the April 23 Brigade’s Tour of Cuba 2015.  

A BEAUTIFUL LAND
All photographs by Bruce Henderson, April 2015

Pillar to Post thanks top photographer Bruce Henderson of Rancho Santa Fe, California for contributing so many of his image to this special series on Cuba.  He’s prolific in the number of shots he takes and his command of the frame and subject matter is only surpassed by his keen sense of lighting.  Bruce is always exploring and inventing ways to produce the next best perfect shot.
