Photographer's Note
There in the middle of the night at 00:00 he is strolling alone with his Bicitaxi looking for customers! Bicitaxi anyone?
Holguin (195 000 people) was a very friendly city. This is not one of the usual tourist places in Cuba with lots of tourists. I stayed for two days and didn't see one single tourist. However I had a very nice and interesting visit. I can't say that there is much to see in this city but there is much to experience of the Cuban city life. Holguin wakes up in the evening at 20:00 and many things happened around the squares. If you want to see a city not used to tourists I can recommend Holguin for a couple of nights!

Love the pool of lights on the road and the Bicitaxi, awesome. I would have preferred though if it was slightly more frontal. TFS

Hello Jan. The photo is simple and nevertheless at the same time very effective. The composition is excellent. A very good and skillfully realized photo. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Hello,
I find this photo very interesting. It has a very strong surreal appeal. The more you look at it the more you are grabbed by the dark and strange atmosphere. At first I was thinking...well...with some post processing... But no. I believe it is great as it is. TFS
See you around

Hi Jan,
Nice atmoshere in this photo: the lights and space in the photo highlighting the loneliness of the figure and the emptyness of the street,
regards Henk
