Walking To School Photo

Photographer’s Note

Another photo from Morro de São Paulo, the beautiful location a few hours from Salvador. For more info on the island, see my other photos I posted previously.

I always love visiting tropical islands, and prefer smaller ones. It is fascinating to me wondering what it would have been like to grow up on a tropical paradise. I don't know if these kids were actually walking to school, but just having a beach to walk on every day would be pretty spectacular.

In the background you can see the dramatic cliff, and lighthouse. There is a zipcord that you can take from the top to the bottom of the beach...I didn't have enough money, nor wanted to risk my camera plunging into the ocean (not to mention me as well).

Hi David,
Maybe is not to school, but is a nice walk.
A well balanced photo, including the lighthouse on the hill.
Greetings,
