Beach Balls - Rio De Janeiro, Brazil
An early morning stroll on the beach in Rio provided a unique scene - calm. Rarely do you find the beaches in Rio de Janeiro empty, except in the early morning. This beach ball vendor sat and waited patiently for customers to show up, enjoying some peace and quiet.

Oooh! What a fabulous picture! I love how bright the balloons look on the muted blue of the ocean and sky.
Gorgeous, gorgeous colours… You must have been up WAY early.
I love the minimalism in this shot. Beautiful colors too.
LOVE THIS!!
Simply stellar photo full of colour and with a clear story woven behind the image.
Thanks for the kind words everyone! It’s a shot I took early on as I was still taking photography classes – but it remains as one of my all time favorites!
What a lovely bictures – I love those beach balls – but what happens to them at the end of a day at the beach? They look too big for everyone to be taking home
Awesome photo!
Fabulous photo! My all time favorite. Love the composition and coloring. It has such a somber and calm feeling to it. Brilliant!
