Our children have a good health. They walk without shoes and dont get anything. They love this meeting where they play footbal. When I was a child I hated to use shirts. Different from me, they dont like to be without shirts. Thanks.
Wonderful capture. I could have been doing this very same thing,,,,kicking a ball without shoes about 40 years ago. Couldn't even go to the mailbox barefoot now without going ouch a few times. Love the idea of children playing together in a not so great environment but they seem happy nontheless.
Thanks Katia and Ken. Everybody outside Brazil is used to see those pictures to bring tourists. Well, in Brazil you still find streets like this. Kids hate to use shoes (and they dont get sick for that), hate to take medicins, hate "showers" , hate to have lunch except if it is a coke and a hamburger. Our kids have a strengh I myself dont have anymore. Normally everybody plays footbal without shoes except when it is something official. The horse is there because that place is like a rural area. It is resting. We have lots of green, everywhere. I am glad this pict surprises you. I could have posted a Copacabana pict but I prefer to show another part real Brazil. Thanks for coming.
The people are very nicely arranged in the frame here. You caught just the right moment. Looks easy but it's not!
And Katia, scenes like this (kids without shoes playing, animals in the street) can be seen in every developing country in the world, and occasionally in some developed ones, too. The car-dominated streets of the US and Europe are probably the more unusual ones, in fact.
This Pic is surprising... ...do children really play without shoes? And what is doing an horse in a street? My God, I can't believe such a place exists, is it maybe a tale?
