Candid Portrait by the Window - Havana, Cuba

Candid Portrait by the Window – Havana, Cuba

I noticed this person by the window as I walked the streets. I took a few photos, including one with an older lady, possibly his mother. While I like that picture as well, I decided on this version. One person by the window acting as a frame with a lovely blue.

While this looks like a posed portrait, it isn’t. It was totally candid, as I caught the person looking slightly to his right. The light is lovely, perfect, and, luckily, in bright shade.

It was really nice of him to be on the left side of the window, creating an off-center framing. The red curtain in the background just happened to balance the composition.
