Three months ago, I would have had to ask what that was. How times change.

Hope you're doing OK. I gather things are getting pretty dicey in Brazil these days. We are starting to see some relief here in Madrid, but are far from returning to normal.

Stay safe.

I can relate - I have 2 hanging right now! Great shot Cristobal - I particularly like the par of jeans that balance out the picture. I would attempt to clone out the white thing on the right, but that would probably just ruin ii!

Hope you all are staying safe. I hope things get better soon for everyone in Brazil (I have a cousin in Florianópolis).

How times change indeed. Things are deteriorating by the day here, we are hoping to be able to get out soon. Fingers crossed. I'm glad to hear you're ok.

Get out as in get out of the country? Or get out of the house?

Juano · May 24, 2020

Of the country... we want to go back to Colorado and ride it out there.

Good idea... Your heroic president doesn't seem to recognize the obvious ...

Timely snap...

Best of luck Cris...

Thanks Rags.

A good and timely shot. We have those hanging too.

Sorry things are difficult.

black mamba · May 24, 2020

Good shot. It's a sad commentary on the state of things.I hope you can get out soon, my friend.

I just read this in the New York Times.

"The Trump administration is banning travel into the United States from Brazil, where the Covid-19 pandemic has been spiking, using the same authority it used earlier to halt certain travel from China and Europe."

Juano · May 25, 2020

Thank you all. I'll keep you posted on how things develop down here.

torags · May 25, 2020

It's official...

Trump has blocked travel from Brazil this past weekend; it will take effect this coming Friday...

As they say in the old neighborhood... get your ass out Cris...

Thanks for your concern Rags. We'll be ok, there's always a way.

Brilliant Cristobal! Also the grill is foreboding! Kind of indicates our future as well.

Juano · May 26, 2020

Thanks Taz. Actually the "grill" is not wire, it's netting. A uniquely and weird Brazilian thing.

El Gato · May 30, 2020

Cristóbal...

A wonderful image of our times.

I like the positioning of the masks above the jeans, with nothing in between.

Instantly gave me the impression, albeit on the darker side, of a symbol of the 300,000+ people worldwide, who have perished during this pandemic, to date.

A powerful image. Even though you might not have intended it to be interpreted the way I "saw" it.

Well done!

Juano · May 30, 2020

Good comment. Certainly a picture of our times.
