Easter week in Antequera is well worth a visit there are some very impressive processions here of which this figure of the virgen forms part.The figure was created hundreds of years ago and is beautifully decked out for the procession thru the steets every year.This shot was taken at about midnight,just before she went back into the church together with the people who had been carrying her around the town for the previous six hours.Taking photos at night without a flash is quite a challenge for any photographer but when the photo turns out well it's very satisfying.
Sometimes you've gotta love tungsten light. It works beautifully here, makes the mood of the shot. (Story helps it along too.) Cropping feels a little tight to the top and right - very eyecatching image~
