Scenes from World Cup 2014 opening day
2

I live in Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro where much of the World Cup festivities are taking place. Needless to say it was not all a party as protests also took place. Here are a few pictures I am sharing. More can be found at https://www.facebook.com/RioImagem

All pictures were taken with a Canon T4i and Tamron 17-50 f/2.8 VC

Brazilian and Argentinian fans putting aside their usual rivalry

The media came running ahead of the protesters

The police were ready. The worry for those who saw this was that those masks might be necessary.

The media had a ball, and stopped several protesters in their tracks

When I bent to take this picture, he flashed his 'press credentials'
