My town Friday shoot-out / relaxation

 For those that live in Rio de Janeiro relaxation means water and family.

Whether it be walking by, being in, being on, being solitary or with half the city, being while the sun is hot or when the air is cool, when the sun is rising or when falling, they are happiest while relaxing near water.

 

 

 

The sea, the movement of water, is reflected in the rhythms of their walk and in the sway of their music.

Some walk their dogs, some push elderly parents, some guide their children at play, and some sit quiet and contemplate but it is by the powerful sea or the soft lagoa, along the edge of water, it is a ritual as long observed as this city has lived.
