Brazilian Dreams

I spent only a little over a week in Fortaleza Brazil but strangely I dream of it often.  My memories of the landscape, the smells, textures and people are very clear.  Often it takes me a few months (years!) to revisit the photographs from a country, but I happen to be sorting through all of my photographs for my new portfolio site.  I stumbled across these images and they reminded me of my dreams so I thought I would share them.  The first and third are images of the Atlantic ocean and the middle a shot is of one of the favelas bordering Fortaleza's city dump.

Beautiful work. I loved that trip. I remember Melissa's Mom, the gang infested neighbourhood where she lives and how she lives her life with such dignity and courage.
