| Summary: | This article proposes possible inflections for the senses that photographs made of the city and in the city acquire with the passing of time and it relates some of these inflections with the permanence of personages whose function and activity do not justify anymore in the universe of contemporary photographic making. The reflection is established on the trajectory of the lambe-lambe‟ Edgar Borges that has been working as a photographer for almost forty years at Coronel Pedro Osrio Square in the city of Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul. The Edgars work is emphasized as a popular craft, a street work, besides standing out the techniques and the photographic language used by the photographer throughout his trajectory. It is observed, as an aspect of the same importance the presence of the wooden ponies as a scenic element used by the photographer to cdefine his work in the interior of the square. Finally, such inflections contribute for discussions about photography and memory.
