Capoeira Guy

This could be Graduado Popeye, an instructor in Capoeira in Cork (I never asked, but a leaflet handed to me has his name on it). He was able to jump up and forward, twist himself around mid-air and come down facing the way he had come! He was accompanied by other students of this Brazilian martial art and performed other manoeuvres. Impressive!

This shot is brilliant.....he seems totally unaware of the camera and he looks very focused...as in his mind is focused elsewhere.

It's a great shot alright! Popeye agrees too. To confirm your description this is Graduado Popeye, a teacher as part of the Oficina Da Capoeira group. If anyone viewing would like info on Capoeira or class times let me know at nealhewson@hotmail.com Peace!
