Story about the moment of the photo

Firmino waved at me to come to him while I was walking near the beach on the coastline in São Tomé. He waved and signalised to come and sit next to him. He was just hanging out and having a lil smoke. We talked about my stay in São Tomé and what I was doing, I told him about being a photographer and on the look out for beautifil moments and surprises. He told me that he had lived in France and Italy and that he was in the coffee selling business. I was lucky to meet and portray him, actually I had just decided to head towards home cause I had walked a lot that day and I wanted to rest. It is then when photos come to me sometimes, when I do not expect them and decide to stop.
