    The first fellow is Joe Rauti, he has been playing the role of Christ in this procession for 39 years.

    The centurion with the sneakers on is awesome.

  • Amanda Buckiewicz

    Wow, these are fantastic. The second portrait (third photo down) is so haunting.

  • Doggiez

    Lovely photos, John, especially the third one down. You must have had the works of Canavaggio in mind when you took this one — lighting from the uppder left, rich, brown tones, direct eye contact. Great work!

    I swear Jesus in the first picture just winked at me.
    Sad I missed this–seems to be the best of the many parades that run down Grace Street.
