Unfortunately it is not possible to fly directly to Cuba from the U.S. I believe you can fly to Caymans or other Caribbean Islands and schedule a flight from there. I fantisize about Spanish women andCuban cigars. Perhaps other Lugers know you and your work but I must apologize that I don't. Did you visit Cuba on business or pleasure? What subjects required the high speed b&w and do you plan on posting your Cuban pictures on the net? Thanks, BOB << I just got back from Havana and have yet to process my film. I shot a number of rolls of T-Max 3200 and Tri-X pushed to 1600. I managed to get through Canadian customs both ways and into Cuba without the fast film getting X-Rayed. The T-Max box warns against x-rays in bold type. However, the Cuban customs agent would not let me leave without running the film through the X-Ray. Question: What can I expect to see on my film? Will it be fogged? Will lines appear? Should I even bother processing it? Cheers, Dave Fisher Waterloo, Ontario, Canada >>
