I'm back from a busy week at FOTOfusion in Delray Beach, Florida. And though the warm, tropical breezes and temperatures of the Sunshine State were nice, I'm very happy to be home and looking out the window at the snow-frosted winter wonderland around our house here in the Sierra foothills. A soft, gentle snow has jut started falling as I write this.
This photo was taken in a small hand-rolled cigar factory and shop in Miami's Little Havana neighborhood. I was tagging along on a walking tour/photo shoot of the area led by photographer Harrison Funk. This older gentleman came in and relaxed on the sofa to enjoy his cigar.
Many thanks to Scott Kelby for mentioning The Creative Digital Darkroom over at his blog today!
