HELP #9

Description

The theme of water keeps making my mind think about where I live. I live in São Paulo, one of the biggest cities in the world, and the city has one of the most polluted rivers in the world - Tietê. I decided to make a series of ten images, that are not "beautiful" in fact but are the reality where I live, I don't intend to receive any prize with them, but I think it is important to show and ask for HELP(To our politicians and governors). I will try to bring some "artistic beauty" from the pollution, but sometimes it is not possible, it is real.

Another great capture of ugly and beauty. Are there fish for the birds? #11817689

It's really very disapointing to see beauty (the birds) at an ugly environment for which they are not responsible, Adilson! #11817759
