Photographer's Note
This is the view from my hotel room in La habana. I esed this sephia to give it more emphasis to this city, to return to the 50's as many carr there you cna see. The tower give it more beauty ad mistic to this picture, I hope you like it.
There is more info about La habana
Havana (Spanish: La Habana IPA pronunciation: [a'βana]), formerly named Villa de San Cristóbal de La Habana; UN/LOCODE: CU HAV) is the capital of Cuba. The city also forms one of the 14 provinces of Cuba, with the province called "City of Havana" (Ciudad de La Habana).[1] With a city population of more than 2.3 million, and a metropolitan area population of over 3 million, Havana is the largest city in both Cuba and the Caribbean. It is located just over 144 kilometres (90 miles) south-southwest of Key West, Florida. It is located on the northwest coast of Cuba, facing the Straits of Florida, and is surrounded by Havana Province to the south, east, and west.

It is unbelieving to see how some countries just had stopped many years ago. I know about the USA blockade but even that is not a valid reason to let things fall apart.

Hola Elias, very nice view over the old Habana that you had from your hotel room. I like your option of sepia, to give this look of 50's, but somehow feel a lack of contrasts and tried a diferent approach in WS - b&w with more contrast. It's just an alternative - I like this version of yours.
Enjoy the weekend,
Ricardo

Bonjour Elias,
I like the tones of this one.
Pehaps a bit too bright, but the compo and this colors work nicely.
Regards,
JB.

Elias creo que te quedo muy bien esta foto en sepia. El efecto es muy bueno pues le da a la imagen cierto ambiente de aniguedad. Ademas si el cielo esta sobrexpuesto en la version original con el sepia no se nota tanto. La nitidez es otra cosa que la edad a la imagen. Como no se ve nitida uno puede pensar que fue tomada hace mucho tiempo. Es una escena muy bonita de esta ciudad. la arquitectura se ve antigua y ademas no muy bien cuidada. Es una lastima pues el casco viejo podria darle un gran reto en belleza muchas ciudades europeas. Me gusta la foto Elias. Pienso que hiciste un buen trabajo con el cambio de colores. Gracias amigo...tengo tiempo de no ver fotos de tu amigo Javier.
