This was tooked a week before easter, but they preparea ll this before and clean the saints and other things like this silver candle holder. Ester is an amazing combination of spirtual and a party, is so interesting, Andalucia is son differtne the esater is sno so solemn as in other places is a happiness because Jesus will raise from the dead, so theya celebrate more the happy than the sad.
If somebody knows more about this images could you tell me just to know the name. Thanks you
Easter - Semana Santa or "Holy Week"
Semana santa in Estepona
The Easter week processions compete with one another in luxury and splendour. The parades leave each of the town´s churches to wind slowly around the streets, with their lifelike statues of Christ on the Cross and his mother the Virgin Mary in mourning. The processions are organised by the religious brotherhoods, representing guilds of tradesmen or other groups. They spend all year long preparing the elaborate costumes and decorations. This is a serious fiesta and fireworks are not permitted. Drinking and celebrating is still frowned upon by many.
The most outstanding Easter week processions are those of the cities of Sevilla, Málaga and Córdoba and Granada, though the spectacle is worth seeing in any town or village. In particular, Estepona, Ronda, Arcos de la Frontera, Luque (Saturday), Baeza, Cabra, Jerez, Rio Gordo, Ubeda, Puente Genil, Huercal.
The processions take place during the week leading up to Easter Sunday. (April 16th 2006, 8th April 2007, 23 March 2008, 12 April 2009, 4 April 2010). The best days are Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Saturday. Easter Sunday itself has less intensity generally. Exceptions being the towns of Castilleja de la Cuesta, Pillas, Coria del Rio, Almaden de la Plata, and Setenil.

Buenas noches por allí Elias:
¿cómo es que hoy no has puesto ninguna nota en tu foto?
No soy un gran admirador de este tipo de esculturas de la virgen, pero reconozco que la foto es muy buena. Me gusta el efecto que genera en la base de la foto los candelabros plateados y el efecto de la luz sobre la corona.
Un abrazo: Javi
A foto está muito boa e tirada debaixo para cima deu-lhe um sentido de grandiosidade. Gosto muito das cores que conseguiste. A profundidade de campo está suficientemente boa para se ver muitos dos detalhes do castiçal e da coroa também.
Antonio

Elias antes de comenzar me gustaria saber que significa Manatee. Bien, me gusta esta foto pues muestra un retrato, aunque no real en el sentido de humanidad, muy vivo de esta imagen. Los candelabros vacios, excepto por el que contiene la candela con tu nombre, le da un acento espiritual a la foto. Pienso que la forma que captas el sentido religioso en tus fotos es muy profundo. Le das bastante importancia a lo espiritual. Me gusta esa cualidad en tus fotos. Bonita e interesante foto que nos presentas este dia :-)

Hola Elias, this is very good! The low POV provided a great impact of the statue and I love the foreground with the glasses. Very original take my friend. She looks like a godess up there. The light is perfect and the image has good quality. The only thing is your signature: I wouldn't put it in there, on top of the candle...but I understand youand it's just a small detail. Excellent work, my friend!
New photos from you coming soon, right?
Have a good weekend,
Ricardo
