What a day!
I had really hoped to see the eclipse but the sun dropped off our sight before it began. No matter, what an incredible day to end an amazingly beautiful weekend. Thank you!

Gone Fishing.
Let Spring begin! We jumped on the Marilyn Jean Saturday night to catch us some fish. But there were no fish. The only things we caught were Skate, Rats and each others lines with crap reels and three dollar sinkers. It was a beautiful night to be on the water with friends and some beers so I have no complaints.

This kinda made my day!
The last few days I have been thinking about what to do with my images from Brazil, this year's and last. I would love to have them printed on some beautiful paper and show them. But then I hit a wall and feel lost on how to get it done, correctly. Feeling overwhelmed I entered a few into the National Geographic Traveler contest... and to my surprise found this one on the front page today. Yep, that feels good! So, if you are so inclined, go vote (LINK)! There is also this amazing photo of a boy swimming with a shark by James Morgan that also deserves a 10! Cheers!

Still life with Junior
Found this space last night, a room full of wonderful juxtapositions of his life. Tools, phones, art and parts. So excited to return with a 'camera'.

Fishy.
This is the fish I found while searching for a beverage other than beer.
Tonight I found the fish below, by Marcelo Macedo, on Pinterest.
I think they should hang together.

Christiane, Lighter than her Life - Salvador, Bahia 2012
The memories from my three weeks in Brazil are fading which makes every day a little harder. This morning I opened my images and clicked through them again to return to Bahia life. So many beautiful moments, excitement and exhaustion created another amazing adventure photographing and learning with Ernesto. I've just added the final edit to my website

reality sets in...
No longer waking in spurts of "where am I!?" but still dreaming of Carnaval to Boipeba, Salvador, Cachoeira and so many stops in between. I'm missing that white van, the sun, the laughter and of course the Quebras Molas.

Agua de Cerveza.
Bill Mar is currently on TV talking about God and rain while I'm remembering my last day photographing in Salvador dodging the rain doing my best to keep the camera dry. We were all exhausted and really pushing ourselves to find something interesting to photograph. Our initial hope was to attend a Condomble Ceremony but we were told no cameras. Our next idea was the boxing gym and after a VERY long, very slow bus ride in horrible traffic all four of us dove out of the bus into driving sheets of rain. We made it into the corner cafe and waited it out with a beer. By the time it let up enough to walk to the gym they were done for the day. I hadn't been there so was excited when they invited us up to see the space anyways. Four(ish) flights up some very wet, slippery steps I was greeted with so much color my eyes were popping! We didn't stay long and weren't sure what to do so we again did what everyone in Salvador does... had a beer. It's how the city rolls. I'm going to really miss my photo life of the last ten days and even more the sun and seas of Bahia! Brooklyn feels like home but in my haze of jet lag exhaustion it's only strangely familiar today.
