There are several photographers who operate in front of the Capitolio. They take your picture and then process it inside the big box of their camera. This is a traditional business that dates back to way before the Revolution. As such it is a tourist dependent business. Tourism is the island's major source of income these days. Most of the tourists come from Europe or S. America. The tourism was described for me once as "ideal for the budget-minded tourist." One of the unfortunate aspects of the local economy no doubt related to its paternalistic basis is very poor service. In some restaurants the wait staff will simply stand about, chatting and ignoring their customers. In  one totally tourist directed Italian restaurant I ordered fettucini alfredo. Forty five minute later I was told, "The fettucini, it is over. Now, we have spaghetti alfredo." The photographers provide much better service.
