A Good Friday afternoon

Today is Good Friday, "a religious holiday observed primarily by Christians commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary." (Because someone always asks.) And some area worshipers took to the streets for the "Way of the Cross" procession, as these photos by Barbara L. Hanson show...







...the procession includes a little flogging...



... it was busy on East Houston and Avenue B... as the procession from two different churches intersected here...

Is that what all that racket is? Someone playing a trumpet that sounds like he's strangling a dog and some lady preaching in Spanish?

Grieve, Are those your arrows in the bottom picture? You're getting good at that, it almost looks like they're part of the photo.
