Simply put, Cuba is like no other place on earth. The spellbinding history from the early Caribbean-Spanish explorers to the mid- twentieth century reads like a legendary novel. Life for the Cuban people changed dramatically in the 1960?s. It?s as if the country was placed in a time capsule for fifty years and suddenly emerged, opening the doors to all who wish to explore. One can certainly feel the complexities of Cuba?s history and the strength of those who call it their home. The music makes you dance and the arts convey the struggles and triumphs. Cuba is absolutely fascinating.
Hunt’s Photo and Don Toothaker want to welcome you to this special photography workshop. We plan to challenge you to slow down, think, observe, anticipate and feel each and every shot. Our days will be full of photographic opportunities, instruction and discussion as we experience a very unique look into the heart and soul of Cuba.
