21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
The Way

This image was taken in my grandmother's farm when I went back to Brazil to visit her. This tree called "Capota Vermelha" has been in the farm since I can remember and I always loved the contrast of the red and green in it. This image is incredibly important to me as it marked the first time my grandmother ever saw me in the process of taking self portraits and I felt very supported by her at the moment.
