 This was taken in the town of Vinales in Cuba. This is a small town in the countryside with lots of tobacco farms. We watched them rolling the cigars by hand at one of the farms. Fascinating. This chap was very happy to have his picture taken

I'd have perhaps liked a little more sharpening on the eyes, which to me somehow look less sharp than the rest of the face, but otherwise very nice capture and processing.
