Tchau, Brazil!





Well, time has finally come that i have to go back to "reality". I'm flying out first thing in the morning and will get to Chicago on tuesday evening.
I already miss Brazil, its people specially, my family and friends. I'll also miss our simple happiness.
For right now, I'll leave you guys with a quick preview of Dj Felipe Lira, who's really hot right now in Brazil. He's a great friend and a mature Dj with unexpected-fun-sophisticated mixes.

Workshop de Luz

Eu gostaria de pedir desculpas a todas as pessoas interessadas no seminario de luz de estudio que eu iria ministrar aqui em Natal. Mas devido a problemas com a organizacao do evento, as aulas foram canceladas.
Na minha proxima viagem a Natal, que acontecerah em breve, alugarei um estudio onde darei esse mesmo curso com a carga horaria de 30 hora/aula.
Agradeco ao interesse de todos e jah estou ancioso para o meu retorno, quando encontrarei todos.

Does the fly land on the same spot twice?


As photographers, we all know that a lot of the images that we pursuit now, have already been embedded in our minds for a long time. I had never felt that, though. Until I snapped this photo of a boy at my Father's farm, loved it but i didn't know WHY i liked it or WHY i even took it. Then I realized that it looked exactly like a painting my family had in our living room when i was a kid and i was obsessed about. And, as to questioning myself on why i thought this photo was important, i see more and more reasons every time i look at it.
I see myself disoriented and curious, sad but contemplative, immature but confident.
I also love the link to that part of my past i had forgotten and I love the fact that i realized that we're governed by so many different forces that takes us "instinctively" to where we are right now.
Back to the same photo.

Make-Over






I've been working on a make over for this blog for the longest time. Well, i've got this nasty cold and it's been raining non-stop for 3 days, so i can't go to the beach. So, here's part of the result. I've seen pictures of Chicago and it looks so "deliciously" cold, i think i'll stay here for a little while. I'm just going to have to start selling my body to make a little money. Anybody up for it??
Ah! As a little treat, i've got some photos a model Jeff Lindell chose to use in his portfolio.
