During a trip to Brasil in 2002 / 2003. This is one of the oldest favelas in Rio de Janeiro. Made this one on film with my first camera, a Pentax SP1000 from the 1970's, inherited from my father.
the notorious favella neighborhoods --- damn, this place is hectic.
i saw a documentary about gangs in brazil by Ross Kamp.
scarrry i tell you.
but ... anyways.
nicely captured.
oh yes. is that mist at the top covering the trees?
wo, i really love this shot.
gives a new meaning to the term, "living check by jowl" with your neighbours -- i need my space
great shot...

ilike
oooooo yes. yes.
