Among the images he has left the first month of 2025 in Havana There are the return of the coats to the streets and parks of the city.
The arrival of several cold fronts, the last this week, have given an winter appearance to the Cuban capital – with gray skies, intermittent, swell and and coastal floods– which contrasts with the hottest days reported in other parts of the island.

They are common prints at this time of year, but they are not less relevant to Havana, who experience – they say or suffer, according to each case – a change in temperatures and in their own lives these days.
For some is the expected opportunity to change look and lend a stored clothing for months. For others it is a hard test for your health and your few belongings. There is no lack of those who presume “hot”, while most are wrapped as best.

Even with their own color palette and the most warm people, the cold fronts cannot hide the crisis, nor the daily lacks, nor the high prices, nor the difficulties of many – particularly the most vulnerable – nor the imperative for them And many others to go out day by day to “solve”, to “fight”, for them and their families.
This is the Havana of this month: a city with its contrasts and problems, emotions and efforts, passed through the Cuban winter sieve. A winter that is not Europe, North America or South America, but has its own images, such as those that Otmaro Rodríguez rediscovers us this Sunday.
