I really don't know if the photographer's name is Rolando, but you can read that in one side of his camera is written Rolando!

This was my final attempt to photograph him with a film camera. He is almost everyday with his vintage box camera in front of El Capitolio de la Habana, taking photos to tourists.

You can find him there anytime, and have a vintage photo for only 2 bucks. Or maybe 3, you never know with the financial crisis these days. :P

Maybe I'll give him a copy of this photo as a present... yeah, why not?

Camera: Zenit 12
Lens: HELIOS-44M-4 (f2.0/58mm)
Film: FujiFilm Press 400
Color negative Scans
Turned to grayscale, plus some minor adjustment on the exposure, tone curve and contrast.

Admin #The-Yard-Collective Street Photography is NOT about empty streets, traffic, graffiti, All Stars, traffic lights and crap on the footpath!

"Madness, you said?!"
"You are just jealous that the voices talk to me!!!"

"Locura, dices?!"
"Estas celoso de que las voces me hablen a mi!!!"
