Fantastic set, recently watched a documentary titled Cuba and the Cameraman on Netflix. The filmmaker Jon Alpert has been visiting and documenting Cuba for 45 years. His new movie looks back fondly at its people and its leader. He was the only American filmmaker Castro allowed to film and travel with him.

Cuban's had either a love or hate relationship with Castro. I was in Cuba when Castro died. People were crying in the streets and gathering in groups singing songs. Many others basically said good riddance.
Love these photos
Would it be reasonable to ask Camera/lens and basic processing tech to get this fantastic look
On top, of coarse, to the most important ingredient, your undeniable special talent as a photographer

The camera used was the Sony A7R and lenses were Batis 25, 85 and Sony 35 2.8. I process my images using Lightroom and SilverEfx.
Very gritty and realistic feeling. I prefer more realistic feeling shots of Cuba like this to the overly pastel, touristy, idealized shots you often see of it.

I process my B&W to the gritty side and print them onto a heavy matte paper. Love the look of the grit on textured paper.
