My image of a Cuban Barber in Havana, Cuba was included in the 2018 National Geographic Travel Photographer of The Year Contest and was selected as the editor’s top pick and featured by many news agents across the world. The daily telegraph included it in the ‘collection of the best entries so far in National Geographics Travel Photographer of the year award”, The Mirror included it in their story “10 spectacular shots from around the world revealed as National Geographic Travel Photographer of the year kicks off”. In that same year it was chosen as a National Geographic photo of the day and also featured in National Geographics best of March Images.
