“Look, the taxi is coming now. I see it!”
“It better be Afonso driving. He owes me €10 from the other night.”
“Oh, doesn’t look like it. Not his car. You lent him that money to buy a gift for his mom, didn’t you?”
“Yeah, He paid far too much for a little figurine, but his mom loves it.”
“Ah, that’s all that matters. It was worth the money then.”
“Hmm. I guess you’re right.”
“You know you’ll never see that money again?”

Wandering around Lisbon I came across this bus stop in the middle of the city. The guy pictured in the back of the bus stop caught my attention, contrasting nicely with the people waiting at the stop.

When I got home, I looked up the text, “O SONHO NÃO PARA, ARRANCA”, it says, “THE DREAM DOESN’T STOP, IT STARTS”. I guess his dream was to do handstands?

Sometimes I’m making photos on the street, or in this case, photographing from a moving tram, and someone will make eye contact. They’ll stand out from the crowd because they are different and made a connection.
