Alto Cedro, Holguin province, Cuba - translation: Happy 90th birthday Fidel, hope you have many more. He died six months later. But I did get to attend his final birthday celebration.

I've had my eye on this old sign for awhile now. I even had plans to come back and do some night photos here (the ambient streetlighting lit it very nicely). Turns out, the local cops sit here and run radar and many times when I'd come by, I'd see the squad sitting there so I'd skip it for next time (I've been hassled too many times for taking photos of old junk). Then, one day I drove by and the sign was gone! Lesson learned: Always get the photo before someday when its too late. So here is the next best thing - a photo with the Perkeo II. Ilford Delta 100 was the film.
