Morais Soares is a very popular street among the residents of Lisbon. Lively and bustling, this street stands out not only for the large crowds of people that pass through it every day, but also for an aerodynamic spectacle that goes largely unnoticed: the Grand Prix of pigeon races. Through encouraging an imaginative and innocent gaze, this hand-made ensemble brings photography to its youngest spectators, offering them a glimpse into a very unique type of aerial hustle and bustle. The book‘s feathered competitors are seen soaring above the rooftops, rearing their wings at the start line, and setting off for an exciting flight through the much-loved Rua Morais Soares.
