Black Nazarene

[dolina]

The Black Nazarene, known to devotees as Nuestro Padre Jesus Nazareno de Quiapo ("Our Father Jesus Nazarene of Quiapo"), is a life-sized, dark-coloured, wooden sculpture of Jesus Christ, held to be miraculous by many Filipino devotees. The Black Nazarene is currently enshrined in the Minor Basilica of the Black Nazarene in Quiapo, Manila, Philippines.

The Feast of the Black Nazarene is celebrated every January 9 with the weekly Friday Masses held in its honour beginning on the first Friday of the year.

Nice shots.

For the first one, really a lot of interesting content to appreciate. Maybe you could reduce the white vignetting. Nothing something commonly seen here in singapore.

Hi Paolo,
Nice street shots but as your thread title says, I don't see any related photos about the black nazarene especially the ayala bridge sepia photo. Manila street shots could have been the appropriate title for your thread. Just my opinion.

"Alpha Mounter"

Nice perspective of the event. Their perturbed expressions makes me imagine what they are seeing.

That's a thought but all the shots were done during the Nuestro Padre Jesus Nazareno de Quiapo.
