Photographer's Note
>>> Please open this image in a new tab.
I was working when I noticed these two clowns were blocking the street, trying to stop cars and selling something to them, I am not sure if it was a toy or a sweet. As it was pandemic time maybe they were people trying to find some money in hard times. Few time after they moved from this point to the other side of the square and then the police stopped them, asked them why they were stopping the cars in the middle of the street and menaced them and then they were gone.

Eu estava trabalhando quando vi esses palha輟s bloqueando a rua e tentando vender alguma coisa, n縊 sei se era um brinquedo ou algum tipo de doce. Como era 駱oca de pandemia talvez fossem pessoas desesperadas em busca de alguma renda. Pouco depois eu os vi do outro lado da pra軋 e vi quando o carro da polcia os interceptou, perguntou porque estavam parando ops carros na rua, os amea輟u e eles se foram.

Hello Jorge,
If I had seen people dressed this way in the middle of a street I would also have taken a photo, but I never had a view like this from my office. At first they make the view more cheerful, but then I just feel sorry for them, or for any persons who have to do jobs like this to survive.
Regards,
Gert

Hello Jorge,
A good daily life scene of the desperate clowns eager for a little cash. They add a bright splash of colour. Too bad the police chased them away. Tfs!

Hi Jorge,
There is something similar happening in my city when there is a campaign to collect funds for charity. The point of view is showing the details of the costumes of the clowns. The light is bringing out the colors. Have a nice day.

Hello Jorge,
This must be a first, as a street photograph!
I'm not sure whether to feel sorry for the clowns because they were trying a possible method of raising much-needed money or whether to be indignant that they are endangering the safety on the road, by taking advantage of the situation!
Whatever, this does make a colourful and quite intriguing photograph!
Have a good w/e,
Bev :-)
