Weekly Photo Challenge: Foreign

26 Oct

20121026-134327.jpg

At first I was a little confused with this week’s challenge-Foreign- since I am Brazilian, and have been living in the U.S.for over ten years now. What is home and what is foreign to me are somewhat mixed up, and it is difficult to compartmentalize.

So, I choose to share a photo of a fisherman I took at Ilha do Mel, Parana, Brazil. This is a place near and dear to my heart, which I have been visiting ever since I was a child. It is an island that can only be accessed by boat, and no cars are allowed. Fresh seafood, sun, and beautiful beaches… Paradise frozen in time

    Nice shot, I like the framing. I too am a US resident, born elsewhere.

      Thank you, the framing is actually a pier, I took this from under it.

    This shot has a lot of story to it. Where is her going, what is he doing, etc.

      Thank you for stopping by. I like to think like that too, and imagine the stories behind a photo.
