The Caravan with the of the Commander’s ashes started the day on 2016 November 30 th from '' Havana at a time of Santiago de Cuba.

The convoy will arrive in Santiago on December 3th after a journey of over a thousand kilometers across the island's main city, whose habitants, especially "campesinos", who used every means of transport available to assist the transition and give the last farewell to ' “eternal guerrilla”.

I started photographing in 1976 at the age of 19 with a film camera and as a self-taught person I learned how to print in the darkroom, developing films and printing in black and white. Subsequently, for about twenty years I dedicated myself to wedding photography until eight years ago I started to devote myself to a different genre with the intention of realizing something that could satisfy me on an emotional leave.To date, three of my projects have been published in trade magazines: Second Class, Ship Breacking Yard, Compartiendo Esperanzas.
