VILA VELHA (ES)
This beautiful smile belongs to one of my dearest and most beautiful friends in Brazil. I met her for the first time in 2005, and I accompanied her family to visit a common friend of us in Vitória, the capital of the state of Espírito Santo.
We have spent Reveillon there: the celebration of New Year, on the beach of Camburi, amidst thousands of people, mostly in white, cheering, laughing, singing. A happy giant family together, all with their hopes for the coming year.
We also spent some time on the beach, enjoying the sun, the warmth, the sea, our drinks. Those were unforgettable days and provided me some inspiration to take photographs. Like this photograph, when my friend was having a routine check of her beautiful face. I could not resist to immortalize this special moment, when her magic smile was covering her mirror.
