This photo came out almost exactly as I had envisioned it...i envisioned something a little more dramatic, but I am still pleased with day 36.

A friend of mine holding her cell phone at a local restaurant. I added the other picture onto the screen in editing. Not difficult, fairly clean shot, and kind of sweet, I thought. The woman in the picture is the same that's holding the phone.

our mouth speaks, only what we are able to make it say, and sometimes we fail to communicate that which we want, so what if our eyes could speak?

Brazilian Boy

Walking to work through an abandoned lot, I strolled across this boy dragging his truck. I thought it was so definitive as a photo, that I had to take it.

This is actually a very common site all the time in this area. The children are poor and pretty much walk everywhere like this. I was quick with the camera to not draw too much attention to myself.

Notice his brazilian flag shorts. I love it. I didn't realize they were until after I took the picture...greatness!

Day 32 of 365.
Okay, not much to say here, but some general observations about the project. I once read that a photographer must keep in mind that its 365 photos, not 365 masterpieces. I always try to shoot my best shot, but sometimes, when you see the same things everyday, getting that daily great shot is difficult.

Today was an example of that. Played soccer, went swimming, and still nothing I really wanted to use for 365.

This was the only thing that kind of captured the essence of the day.

Nike should change their slogan to Just Did It!

On the border of this reality, and moving into another dimension, I found that I gained and achieved extraordinary abilities of mind control.

Here in Teresina, Brazil, there are apparently some really talented grafffiti artists....

we stopped today and took a picture of this one.

a hiatus and a new project...

I guess I had kind of been on hiatus from blogging.

Truth is, I hadn't been on hiatus from photography, but I've been so busy with that and with teaching english that I've had very little time to put together a blog.

I began a photography project called Project 365. Essentially, its a one picture per day project. I just finished day 30 today.

Also recently, I took a trip to Barra Grande Beach in Brazil. Since, I live in Brazil it was only about a 5 hour drive, and it is a truly beautiful beach! One of the best I've ever seen.
