Hi Luis,
I had missed this posting of your fabulous photo essay. Sorry and it's so
well shot with variations of images!
This is an example of my assignments during my 60 year plus career, "Photo
documentaries!" Often I was shooting the main subject for a week or several
weeks day after day! And the odd time a full month sun rise to sunset &
darkness! 
Or the subject? fisherman, oilmen, farmers, doctors  and all  kinds of
medical workers, steel mill workers were finished for the day. Then I could
go to bed myself. But not before checking and reloading all cameras used
that day and prepared for the next! Notes made and or "sleep became so
demanding" you had to close your eyes and do it! :-)
Then surprise? The next morning it started all over again a new "operation?"
Crash crisis, emergency situation started again, "BUT ME ALWAYS LOOKING FOR
NEW STUFF!" It's called "OBSERVATION"that's when you find those little
visual pieces of "Photo Gold" photos!
There were very few "picture of the day?" type assignments. Many only
because of observing life wherever I might be walking about.Often the image
didn't have anything in-line with the main story subject.
When I produced my first published international medical book  "DOCTOR'S
WORK. The Legacy of Sir William Osler" it was on and off over a period of 10
years due to shooting when I had time between "paying assgnments!". 
The 2nd. medical book Sandy Carter and I produced, "WOMEN IN MEDICINE. A
Celebration of their work." was a 2 year project. Like everyday somewhere in
Canada and the USA. We had a publisher ready to publish as soon as we were
finished shooting.
Many LUG members have copies of these books all shot with Leica cameras in
available light in B&W! "NOTHING POSED ALL REAL LIFE!" I believe you have
copies? Coffee table size books.
I have gone over and over your series enjoying a fine selection of images
illustrating this Holy event!
Well DONE!
Thank you.
cheers,
Dr. Ted Grant   OC
