One day leaving the guesthouse where I stayed in Viñales/Cuba for a walk, I almost immediately stumbled into this scene. The horse, probably fatigued and mal nourished had slipped. The owner eventually got some help to put the horse on his feet and a bit later they continued to wherever they where heading….
In Cuba Fidel Castro is often refered to as “El Caballo” : The Horse
One of the highlights on my two-week visit at the Seychelles was the dive at the Ave Maria rock! You´ll see it as the silhouette island in one of the images.
It was me, the dive master and three french doctors who had arrived from La Reunion to do some sailing around the Seychelles archipelago on board an impressive catamaran. So I was in good hands..
Ave Maria is a granite rock that offers some nice diving conditions. White tip reef sharks are often spotted around here. The variety of life is astonishing as you can see on the images.
One of the interesting creatures we encountered was the Scorpionfish. It´s much like a chameleon. It is also very venomous, so don’t provoke! I have enhanced the fish sharpness and contrast and as you see it’s still hard to discover. Clue: you find the eyes at the lower part of photo.
After the visit to the underworld the french divers were a little disappointed for not having seen any sharks despite of my bleeding leg!! (collision with some corrals)
Bonus YouTube film from Seychelles Thank you Cinicas.
All photos taken with Canon Powershot S-100 with UW-house. This was my second visit under water with a camera. It´s tricky!
An evening trip with the bike on the streets of Guanabacoa, Havana. Getting some food for tonight perhaps?

A little bit outside central Viñales, Cuba there are three houses in a row. This is the Nodas territory. Not much earthly possessions but lots of warmth.. I think it shows in the faces!
