It is incredible!I ask myself: how does he cut the shave? I'd like to know more about this guy.

quelle horreur! j'ai mal pour lui! vient il d'une tribu ou cherche t'il sa "voie" dans la souffrance?...

christina (2040) 2004-09-13 9:50

OUCH!!!!!Interesting photo of a subculture. Bold and direct, like the subject!

Awww! This one really hurts . Extreme art expression! How can he ever sleep with those things. I wonder...:)

Voilà la photo la plus incroyable vue sur TE !!! On espère voir là un montage ... mais non, ce n'est qu'une triste réalité !
Ce n'est plus du piercing mais plutôt de la pure folie. A l'aide ! Cet homme a besoin d'un soutien psychologique ... et de soins !
Félicitation, Issac, de nous montrer un cliché si saisissant.

Nice shot Isaac!!!It is not every day u meet somebody like that.I wonder what his girlfrend look like!?

chito (44) 2004-09-13 10:35

wow, he must have ran out of fingers to put the rings. striking and very direct image.

danyy (70671) 2004-09-13 10:41

Est-ce une image tirée du film Hellraiser ?
Saisissant et évocateur de la décadence dans laquelle sombrent pas mal de gens.

miguel (1854) 2004-09-13 12:07

I remember this guy!...I saw him in La Havana in 1998...
Is he still asking for one dollar to let you take the picture?...;-)

pamela (613) 2004-09-13 13:18

Es terrible. Me pregunto cómo es que duerme por las noches, o si alguien se atreve a acercársele. Pobnre hombre, no se quiere. Buena foto.

rinusj (64) 2004-09-13 16:25

really painfull i think.

dominique (11414) 2004-09-13 16:26

incredible portrait, courageous or insane!! prtrait is really good, a strong picture which makes a good effect.

nbournas (3223) 2004-09-13 23:27

Excellent portrait. Why do this I wonder?

Porteplume (3259) 2004-09-14 3:54

Well, well!!! This is something we probably never would have seen without TE.
Stunning and horrible at the same time. Thank you for posting Isaac...

Facinating and very impressive picture.
Have You really made this photo in communistic Cuba, Isaac? Incredible ;)))

serena (327) 2004-10-18 23:47

Oh my god! That makes me wince! I would never have had the guts to ask him if I could take the shot!

silverman (42) 2004-10-19 21:43

I have seen this guy in Centro Havana. No words for this fella. Way to go for getting the shot.

It's very in your face. I would also like to see this in black and white, with the contrast up a little.

sn00zie (2384) 2004-10-26 9:04

oh my god! this is bizzare! it hurts me just to see it. i wonder how the guy sleeps!!!

Hi Isaac
Fascinating face. Good compo, whether it hurts or not. Shall I say the picture is "sharp"? I like the tight crop, but maybe you needed to get the topnot in too.

shangri-la (353) 2005-02-03 11:35

aïe aïe aïe!
il doit être un peu maso ce garçon... enfin, à chacun ses canons de la beauté... mais comment fait-il la nuit, quand dans un mouvement incontrolé il se retrouve une joue contre l'oreiller?
;-)

imoko (397) 2005-02-26 22:37

It is painful!!
However, you met a very interesting person and were Luckey!

And, he is making it to the expressionless one more interesting.

caliane (610) 2005-03-16 20:36

I have seen a tv show about this guy!! he must be quite famous! lol!

not something that we expect to see in Cuba. thaks for this surprise

fiedziu (1762) 2005-07-28 19:10

I am sure it hurts.
His mind hurts ;o)
Sorry but I think it is awful.
And thanks for showing such a strange people.

Bonjour Isaac,
Incroyable mais vrai ! C'est ce que j'ai vu de plus surprenant sur TE. Je ne sais si ce monsieur a besoin de soutien mais je lui conseille tout de même de se rapprocher d'un psy bien cravaté. Merci pour ce moment de surprise. Gérard

Esta foto es interesante por dos razones.
Primero, una composición y un sujeto altamente llamativos y que generan impacto en quien ve la foto.
Segundo, despierta la interrogante sobre si es un jóven cubano o un turista extranjero de paso por la isla. ¿no tienes más fotos de este hombre o sus amigos? sería interesante conocer al grupo al que pertenece, ya que en sí mismo representa una subcultura que generalmente no pensamos que exista allá (incluso en mi país esto solo se ve en algunos lugares muy contados).
Saludos

Hi Isaac,
I wonder how he washes and shaves that face. It must hurt no matter how he does it.
