#1 and 3 really do it for me. These flags makes the scene look out of the ordinary. Very nice!

Beautiful. Every shot is so compelling (except #6 may be, that looks little dull just compared with rest of the photos. that might be just my taste).
Are these decorations related to some festival/carnival?

Thanks for sharing, Aguinaldo!

Thank you all for the kind comments.
Armando,
the kids were attending a capoeira (kind of brazilian street fight/dance) class.

Anthony,
You should.

Anirban,
These flags are decoration for the celebration of São João day (Saint John), very popular all over the country.

This is a class on fugue points with lines, buildings and colors. Very interesting. What a happy environment too.

John and F. Fremerey, thank you so much for the kind words.
By the way, I used only the Zeiss 18mm f/3.5 Distagon in these. I'm in love with this lens.
