A very cool artist couple in Brazil. 

Eggs

I opened the carton and it was a gradient.

Homeless in Toronto

Did not notice the bird till after developing the film. 

Organ Donor

In Brazil I met a friend whose great-grandfather, by the name of Furio, was one of the greatest organ player in his time. He supposedly had a custom made organ brought from Italy to the Cathedral de Sao Paulo and played for the pope, and for other monumental events. It was given to the Cathedral posthumously.

The old man standing with the organ is Furio's son, my friend's uncle-in-law. He knew every date, every year, every milli-details of Furio's organ. 

The organ pipes were super tall and the keys were made of strong ivory. 

Cat call

Breakfast

No, it wasn't really breakfast but the thought occurred to me while I was cleaning and threw the Pez pieces onto the plate. 

City of God

On my return from Brazil I watched City of God. 
I absolutely loved it- It was fresh, unique, and endearing. 

I was always fascinated by South America's favelas (slums) but never had a chance to get a good look. I was either told no or that I would die. 
This is my one fleeting moment (in a car) I came so much as close to a favela. 

Landscape, color, and sunspots

Magnificent Brazil.

Heaven and Hell

Skies of Itu and the Crypt of Sao Paulo Cathedral.

How Lychees grow

Fruitful

Brazil has the freshest, juiciest fruits I've had. 
Here, an equally outstanding fruit bowl. 
Guava, pineapple, mango, papaya, grapes, fantasy, sparkles 

Choppe

60% foam, 30% freezing cold draught beer at 10% its price in NYC
100% addicted. 

Sprawling Sampa

On an overcast day.

US

Back in the US! 

Cat sit

I left Dijon at a friend's house for the next couple of days while I see about Brazil. 

A night void of distraction.  

 

Balance

Been away for a while- What crazy, hectic work schedule it's been.

Difficult to find a balance between work, care and play, yet it is very necessary. 

Physical balance.
