Photo Index
There's a total of just over 450 pics from our trip. Photo credits: Adam Groebner, Dawn Muyres, Jon Heidinger, and myself. I altered the shadows and lighting in some of the pics to bring out more detail that would otherwise be invisible, particularly in the Mogotes caves. Some of the photos are quite large, so please excuse that. I may end up re-sizing them down some more (some are still at 2048 x 1536). The galleries are mostly chronological, but there are some that are mixed based on theme. I also inserted a small handful of pics from online sources that I couldn't resist using. Copyrights for these are on the pics themselves, except for the Fidel Castro close-ups which came from Cuba's national newspaper "Granma." Enjoy!
