AClassic automobiles are a highlight for most tourists visiting Cuba. Some of them look brand new, some worn down, and all seem to be full. In fact, one of the ways to get around Cuba is to wave your hand at passing cars until someone stops to pick you up.  I would not recommend this for a tourist, unless your Spanish is very good, but it could be an option for some.These classic autos fill the streets of Havana, and, if you do not see them, you will hear them – honking and even an occasional backfire. The exhaust can also be intense.

    1. I did a few in black and white for the effect and it does look very retro. And some of them are truly amazing.
