Shot in the Rocinho favela in Brazil during the 2014 World Cup. The houses were all built straight up, adding layers and layers instead of spreading the neighborhood out.

Ipanema Beach
Passing glance of Ipanema Beach from the metro in Brazil. Gorgeous sand, cool water, and an amazing view!
Old VW Bug in Brazil
While in Brazil for the world cup we found an alleyway a little way from our hotel that had this old Beatle in. It looked so out of place from the rest of the alley and the neighborhood we were in. A few test shots later and this is what I came up with!

Colorful Building Tops
Sometimes its the way the color pops that catches your eyes. Sometimes its the structure of the thing you are looking at. This time it was both. I loved how the light blue top of this house contrasted with the red brick in the rest of the house. The dome top was a strange sight to see in a city filled with flat topped houses and very square and rigid architecture. It was refreshing to say the least. 
Floral Fences
Walking through Santa Teresa in Rio gave us the opportunity to view some incredibly cool houses and entryways. People tended to plant flowers and other such bushes right on the edge of their property and these plants would grow through their fences and handrails to create some interesting curb appeal. I found these 2 along the same street and with the fading light I could not have caught them at a better time!
Triplicate
Found this group of potted plants outside a house in Brazil, the lighting caught my eyes as did the way they were set up. I absolutely love stuff like this. A couple of small edits in post to bring out the details a little bit more and add some brightness to a dark scene.
