René Burri



Bought a lovely book in Havana called Un Mundo by René Burri. He is a Swiss photographer, born in 1933, who took many pictures of Che. This accounts for his popularity in Cuba. The book is beautiful, this shot in particular. I'd love to think this image was just fortuitous, but in this business... who knows? I'm thinking about shooting a lot in New York these next few months and might just have to pay homage to this shot - before someone else does.
