I like this one better than the kite parkour- the simplicity is breathtaking and captures the serenity of the scene :)

You just made a piece of art from a common urban spot...
Guys, sorry to break it to you, but this design was submitted in '09 and Kite Parkour was submitted in '10. If there is a rip-off, it was more like the other way around.
This does look a hell of a lot like the Kite Parkour t-shirt, which is a favourite of mine, but I do like this one because of the similarity. They have a kind of day and night contrast going on.
Looks like a blatant rip-ff of the "Kite Parkour" T-shirt. Not trying to be rude, but they are strikingly similar.
A favela is the generally used term for a shanty town in Brazil. In the late 18th century, the first settlements were called bairros africanos (African neighborhoods), and they were the place where former slaves with no land ownership and no options for work lived. Over the years, many freed black slaves moved in. However, before the first settlement called "favela" came into being, poor blacks were pushed away from downtown into the far suburbs. Most modern favelas appeared in the 1970s, due to rural exodus, when many people left rural areas of Brazil and moved to cities. Without finding a place to live, many people ended up in a favela. - from wikipedia :)
