Excellent study of happy faces and yet they are all different. It does make me smile back, I wish I was part of the fun of Carnival.
Mirella said at 4:02 p.m. on Feb 2, 2008:
Faces of every age, every colour and they all smile. This is the magic of Carnival. Tomorrow............is another day. Bravissimo. Ciao

Thanks, ANDRE. This time I decided to pay more attention to people's faces than to their disguises. And I think I made the right choice.

PAM: Yes, you saw Dog Queen somewhere. She was photographed by so many people, and if you pay attention to the children's eyes you'll notice almost all of them were... looking at her. I can easily pick my faves: the first and the last big ones.

PHOTOPOP (sorry, I don't know your name yet!): I had a lot of fun taking these pics, talking to these people. Their faces show a little bit of Brazil - and I'm glad this collection made you smile.

do we have to pick a fave?? BRILLIANT from A to Z, the smiles, they are looking right at you most of them, the colors of the disguises, the diversity in skin tones, the kids' (actually I see a fave..) big brown eyes, just soopa bwana Edu, like I said, you ARE the best. FAVE.
Decoy said at 6:56 p.m. on Feb 2, 2008:
Plenty of joy! =) And I think your own faves are excellent choices!

Maravilhosas cenas Edu,as crianças e o cahorro são as mais legais, a do ambulante também ficou ótima.Como vc já deve saber, adoro Carnaval! eu tava lá, no meio daquela multidão, fui no Bola e depois pro Carioca da Gema mas sem máquina, dessa vez o registro ficou só na memória...hoje tem o Simpatia e depois o Cacique de Ramos na Rio Branco, com chuva e tudo, quem sabe a gente não se encontra por aí.

Joy isn't the only emotions you've captured here, and those are all the more pointed because of the rest. Excellent photography!
EMA said at 5:39 p.m. on Feb 3, 2008:

Se eu tivesse que escolher as melhores ( ou minhas favoritas ), eu escolheria exatamente a primeira e a últimas grandes, assim como você. Mas com enorme dificuldade, devo dizer. Como comentou a Annelies, LINDO DE A a Z!!! O layout é de um bom gosto impressionante. Impecável. Sem falar nas fotografias, claro! Outro dia comprei uma peruca, foi logo depois do Halloween. Acho que é cor de laranja. Aaaaaarrre... perdi a oportunidade de usá-la. Assim como a Liliana, não pude deixar de notar o rapaz carregando algo nas costas... Houve época em que aguardar pelo carnaval me dava "borboletas no estômago", como eles costumam dizer por aqui...Era contagem regressiva mesmo. Ainda bem que você está aí para mostrar esta maravilha de festa popular. Valeu, Eduuuuuuuu!!!
