Easter Sunday. Easter Week 2013.

Today has dawned with a little rain, and the procession scheduled for today has been suspended to protect the sculptures. This procession parading out at 8 am, but from 10am it has stopped raining.
Anyway, I leave a photo I took last year from this procession.

Those are The Three Maries on Easter sunday morning. With that procession, the Holy Week has finished.
Framed with buildings (left to right) of the School of Drama and Dance, the Episcopal Palace, the Moneo building, and the Cathedral of Murcia.
Here photos from 2012.

Good Friday. Easter Week 2013.

This has been a highly sought-frame, but I would like that the sculpture has been more focused.
It is the procession of Salzillos, and the statues: The Lashes, one of the biblical passages that are represented in the procession (here, some pictures with more details).
The church, parish of St. Bartholomew. Its history, here, and its presence in Murcian Holy Week, here.

Holy Thursday At Lorca. Easter Week 2013.

One of the most special Easter Week at Region of Murcia is held in Lorca, where you can see a spectacular procession with horses, chariots, numerous parades (was declared of International Tourist Interest in 2007). You have to book seat several months in advance to see and enjoy. Here you can see the whole procession.

Holy Wednesday. Easter Week 2013.

Yesterday paraded, the procession of the 'Coloraos' (Reds) which is colloquiallly known as the Real, Very Illustrious, and Most Ancient Venerable Confraternity of the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Drums. Easter Week 2013

One feature of Holy Week in Murcia (and many other places in Spain), is the musical accompaniment of each procession.

Festival Of The equinox

This year, in addition to the Theme Day of each month, it has been proposed in the CityDailyPhoto community, some additional Theme Days.
This month, coinciding with the change of season, has raised the issue of the equinox. A time of balance in which both the North and in the South, the duration of the night is the same.
With this photo, which combines nature with the action of the human hand, I raised the coexistence of a sustainable future (with the moon on the background-top of the frame).
