Samba Australia



A rather wet and dreary Sunday afternoon saw me head out to a local beach hotel, to help a budding photographer out with a favour he had been asked to do.
Eduardo, my friend, had been asked by a friend of his - Vinnie - to come along and take some photos of their band. Ed and Vinnie are Brazil
ian, and the band was a samba band, playing traditional samba music. I'll admit, if given the choice, I'll pass on the opportunity of listening to samba, but the chance to take some photos after a draining and tiring weekend was too appealling to pass up.




A few of the photos are attached - the rest are going to be given to the band for their website and promotion. And what a bunch of guys - it's always a pleasure to photograph musicians who aren't just talented, but also whose passion, enthusia
sm and fun is present during their performance.
They're playing again over the next few weeks - might just have to take MSO out so she can check them out too. It'd be wrong to keep something like this to myself.
