Today marks the 14th Anniversary of the 9-11 terrorist attacks in the USA. My prayer for Brazil, is that although the people here are upset with their government having a terrorist attack on your soil and living under the constant threat of radical Islam is far worst than a corrupt government. Right now the USA is being inundate with thousands of Muslim refugees who are not exactly coming to the US to integrate into the American way of life. On the bright side no Arrest were made and no one was injured.

After the the Independence Day Parade in Brasilia, Brazil, A Protest of sort broke out. The only damage that was done was the destruction of a metal barrier erected for the parade earlier that day to help protect the President. The team of worker who where responsible for putting up and taking down the wall reported no real damage was done to the metal wall and it made their job a lot easier taking the wall away for next year....To Be Continued.

Well, I arrived a little late for the start of the 7 de Setembro Parade (Independence Day Parade) in the Capital City of Brasilia. This year it was a little harder to get a good position for photos due to the fact the local government had erected a barrier around the parade especially in the area where the president was to add an extra layer of security for her The pararde itself went off without a hitch. However after the parade was quite a different story more on this in my next post.

Looks like a Long Haired Dachshund  to me.

Maybe A Newfoundland?

While driving through an unfamiliar part of town the other day I came across these Murals on a wall of several dogs. Being a big dog lover that I am, I decided to take a closer look at theses Murals and take a few quick photos of them. What I didn't notice at first glance from the road or even when I was walking up to the dogs was that It is an advertisement for a dogie park, however the park is in such bad shape I thought it was an abandon lot with a fence around it. Living in a city that loves dogs, Brasilia, it's a shame the park isn't better maintained. At least the Murals look good.

Sometimes as a photographer I always wonder what happens to the thousands of people I have photographed over the years. Are they well, happy, etc. Life is hard living in a third world country where your government makes sure you'll always be poor and uneducated. Thank God for the men and women who travel to these countries trying to make a difference with Food, Medical supplies and the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
