Step Up, Or Step Off

from $345.67

Step Up, Or Step Off - Warsaw, Poland 2017

One evening I was out drinking beers with my Brazilian friend Dante. A drunk old Polish guy came up super wasted, looking as if he had already lost one fight that day. Dante was smiling and laughing the whole time, but this guy was serious and wanted to fight for no reason. I got close and snapped the picture, knowing that this man was way too far gone to be able to do anything to either of us.

Estaba bebiendo cervezas con mi amigo brasileño Dante.Un viejo polaco apareció súper borracho y parecía que ya había perdido una pelea ese día. Dante estaba sonriendo todo el tiempo, pero este hombre hablaba en serio y quería pelear sin ninguna razón. Me acerqué y tomé la foto, sabiendo que este viejo estaba demasiado perdido para poder hacernos algo a los dos.
