This is my friend John Scarlata, photographing one afternoon in Habana Centro. John died about 15 months ago of a terrible cancer. He was brave to the last. Last night I was part of a discussion that was held to honor him and his photos. He accompanied our student workshops twice and did a lot of beautiful work while in Havana. It was part of the retrospective currently being exhibited at the Turchin Center on the campus at Appalachian State University. He would be excited to know that we are going to be back in Havana in December and January this year.
