The photograph depicts a vibrant, bustling marketplace scene in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil. It's late afternoon – ‘ontem’ – and the golden hour light ('nas') casts long shadows across the cobblestone streets. Stalls overflow with fresh corn (‘mais’) - ears of corn are piled high, some braided together decoratively. A young woman ('quem') in a stylish but practical outfit is browsing through a display of vintage fashion items ('moda'), her hand hovering over a delicate silk scarf. She appears to be a blogger or influencer – perhaps searching for ‘dicas’ and inspiration for her 'site' - which is focused on Minas Gerais trends (‘minastrend’). Scattered around the marketplace are stacks of printed magazine pages ('pginas’), some discarded, others carefully arranged as makeshift displays featuring recent product launches (‘lanados’). A weathered sign reads 'Vale Edio', a local artisan or business. A man ('trabalha') in overalls is diligently working on repairing an old typewriter – he seems oblivious to the surrounding activity. We ‘vimos’ him there yesterday, according to a small handwritten note taped to his workbench. The mood is lively and authentic; despite the occasional discarded item (‘acabam’, ‘pena’), there's a sense of warmth, community, and creative energy. A faint aroma of freshly cooked corn and coffee hangs in the air. The photograph aims to capture the feeling of 'ser' – being present, experiencing the essence of Minas Gerais culture. The composition is slightly asymmetrical - drawing the eye from the woman towards the typewriter and then across to the vibrant displays of corn, with ‘aqui’ as a central focal point. The lighting is soft and diffused, highlighting textures and colors.
