Photographer captures stunning photos of dancers in the streets of Cuba

Source: Mashable

On his recent trip to Cuba, photographer Omar Robles captured remarkable snapshots of ballet dancers expressing their art throughout the nation's culture-filled streets.

With 135,000 Instagram followers, Robles is known for his stunning photographs of dancers performing against cityscapes and urban backgrounds.

Robles told Mashable that visiting Cuba has been a lifelong dream. While he was there, he had the pleasure of getting to know some local dancers.

As he mentioned in his blog post, Cuban dancers are some of the best trained in the world — which is another reason he was eager to visit.
