Selfies in Cuba
Photo Feature by Lorenzo Crespo Silveira
HAVANA TIMES – The selfie has become very fashionable today in Cuba. Photos of friends, with family, at school or at a party, in short, in infinite scenarios, and taken with a camera or mobile, are uploaded and shared all the time by those with the ability to do so.
For the making of this post, I asked my Facebook friends to send me their self-portraits. Then I chose the best pictures in composition, topic, angles and light treatment.
I also considered creativity.
Enjoy the following samples …

How do you manage to avoid moving to Cuba? You continuously express admiration for oppression and dictatorship but have yet to provide a single piece of information about Cuba. That obviously because if you tried to do so you would expose your total ignorance. How do you justify endeavoring to promote a repressive regime about which you know nothing?
Because the Cuban people, who have the lowest access to cell phone service in the world, can sometimes take selfies on phones invented and manufactured in the capitalist world?
Obviously a place that you have never visited.
Wonderful. The Cuban people and the Cuban revolution is truly the crown jewel of the developing world. What a wonderful place.
