EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Holy Week in Cordoba, southern Spain. In this mesmerizing image, penitents are seen participating in the solemn procession of La Borriquita brotherhood. The photograph, taken by Javier Barbancho on March 28,2010, showcases the deep-rooted religious traditions that draw thousands of visitors to Spain during this sacred time. The low angle view adds a sense of grandeur and reverence as we look down upon these worshippers who are engaged in prayer. Their unrecognizable faces hidden beneath hoods create an air of mystery and anonymity. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details of their religious clothes and staff canes. Inside the church, candlelight illuminates the scene, casting a warm glow on the devout individuals standing together as a group. The ceiling's creative use of light further enhances the atmosphere of spirituality and devotion. This image encapsulates both tradition and faith as it portrays a moment frozen in time during one of Spain's many Easter processions. It serves as a reminder that religion continues to play an integral role in people's lives across different cultures and communities worldwide.
