Nice shot, but looks like you were shooting for the sky, rather than the statue. Any frontal shots?

The front had been disfigured by vandals so I took a 3/4 rear shot.

Thanks, but wanting something is not the same as being willing to pay for it. :|

Cuba was a beautiful place, when my ship was gitmo I got to tour the island. Batista was in charge than. The dictator was in bed with the american maffa. Belive it or not we were supplying guns to the rebles to over throw the guy. Later when castro took over he threw them all out. Thats when they went to Las Veges.

Unfortunately, M&T Bank just pulled out of Cuba, and to make a long story short, there will be no U. S. travel to Cuba until another bank takes its place. The bank blames the U. S. embargo, like that's a new thing. Hundreds of thousands of people travel to Cuba every year, and the banks have put a halt to that - until they get their way.
