5 Day Photo Challenge: Buddies
I accept two challenges to post five photos for five consecutive days this week. The first challenge on Black and White 5 Day Challenge was invited by Wilbur’s Travel, meanwhile the second challenge on Five photos – Five stories was invited by Oda Fagerland. Both bloggers have awesome travel experiences and photography, please do check their blogs. I combine these two challenges by posting a black and white photo and its color version with its story for five consecutive days this week.
I will invite bloggers by the end of the post to participate the challenges. The bloggers could decide to do both challenges or just one of the challenges or not doing any of the challenges at all. The rules for 5 Day Challenge are:
- On 5 consecutive days, create a post using either a past or recent photo in B&W for Black and White Challenge) OR in color for Five photos – Five stories Challenge.
- Each day invite another blog friend to join in the fun.
Day 3: Buddies

Trinidad de Cuba
This image was taken in Trinidad, Cuba. We walked behind an old man and his donkey to reach Plaza Mayor, the center of Trinidad. As I told earlier, I was too nervous when taking pictures about people in public but I was intrigued to capture the pair moment. When we were in the center, we noticed that he offered himself and his donkey as photography subject with small amount of CUC in return. The old man and his donkey in Trinidad are quite popular in the online world. A search of “old man with donkey in Trinidad” in google will result tens photos of him and his donkey with many different poses.
The Challenge Invitation
Since I accepted two challenges, I assume I am allowed to invite two bloggers to join the challenges. Therefore I invite Travel Tales of Life and Kan Walk Will Travel to participate. Their blog posts are enjoyable to read with colorful photography. And oh, they also published interesting posts about “local cuisine, eats and drinks” 😉
though the bw version brings out the variety of textures, I think love the color version more for those eye-catching blues and greens… all in all, a wonderful capture, Indah 🙂
Thank you so much Alexandra!
Such an interesting g shot. Very nice depth of field in the photo. And I love the caption of your photo – buddies. How true..!!!
Thank you so much Suyash 🙂
I just noticed that my comments have been missing here and there … Sorry about that. 😦
No worries Amy! It could be wp glitch! I had once as well that I thought I wrote a comment but then it was not recorded 🙂 Thank you for visit! Hope you are having a wonderful weekend 🙂
True buddies, give me the feeling of being drawn back in time…an iconic shot. The B&W creates a lot of that mood and feeling, but also enjoy the colored shot as it is still a muted scene but still so vivid with the two buddies moving along their way. 🙂
Thank you so much Randall! I have regret not to take more pictures of them together 🙂 I would have more story about them if I did take some photos of the pair..I wish my Spanish back then was good enough!!
Hey Indah, thanks soooo much for inviting me. And for your kind words too! I have already participated in the BnW challenge, but would love to participate in the 5 photos-5 stories challenge. Thanks so much! XO
A lovely shot, Indah 🙂 Oh, no- I just tagged Kan this morning!
Just love this photo!
Indah, what a great photo. I am a huge sucker for eye candy, and am wanting myself to try my hand and grow a bit in the area of photography. I think I’ll find some great photo inspiration here.
🙂
