EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Vincent West, penitents immerse themselves in the solemnity and unity of the Procession del Nazareno in Bilbao, Spain. As Easter processions unfold throughout the country during Holy Week, these worshipers come together to celebrate their faith and participate in a deeply rooted religious ceremony. The image showcases an unrecognizable crowd of individuals who have chosen to cooperate and demonstrate their devotion. Dressed in religious clothes and disguised with hoods, they march through the urban city streets with a dignified purpose. The sharp condition of their white-colored robes contrasts against the city life backdrop, creating a unique visual spectacle. As drum beats resonate through the air, these mysterious figures concentrate on their collective journey towards spiritual enlightenment. Their masked faces add an element of intrigue to this creative use of disguise as they play their part in this ancient tradition. This top picture captures a serene moment amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life. It symbolizes not only a celebration of culture but also serves as a reminder that faith can bring people from all walks of life together for a higher purpose. Through this procession, brotherhood is formed among those dressed up as penitents who collectively embrace their role in honoring Easter - Semana Santa - making it an extraordinary sight to behold.
