[Leica] Dance of Death (Verges)

[luisripoll at telefonica.net (Lluis Ripoll)]

Hi all,

Spain has many traditions, the "Semana Santa" (Holy Week) is very  
popular and quite different in Andalucia, Catalunya or other. Here I  
show you a very old medieval tradition in the village of Verges, a  
nice small town where is celebrated the procession the thursday night  
and the "Dance of Death".

I've tried to follow Dr. Ted's advice "if you can see it, you can shot  
it". It was really available light, almost dark, and subjects in  
movement, I don't like use the flash (I've tried it ony in 3  
pictures), my M8 was setted at ISO2500 but the pictures are very  
noisy, maybe with film I've get better results. However I want share  
with you a general view to this nice village, the procession and the  
famous "Dance of Death" (in catalan: Dansa de la mort).

Thanks for looking, I'll appreciate your comments and critics

Saludos cordiales
