[Leica] IMG: Semana Santa in Alicante

[Jim Nichols]

Hi Nathan,

As cute as your Little Trumpet and Big Trumpet guys are, the thing that 
impressed me were the trumpets themselves.  From the few details I can 
see beneath the hands, these appear to be designs from the mid-1800s.  
I'm amazed that there are that many of them still in useful condition.

In recent years, I have typically gone to see the ones on Good Friday and Easter Sunday. Those are of course the most important days, and so a lot of people come out, it is more like a big parade than a community event. So this year I decided to see two of the smaller processions (“smaller” mainly in terms of the crowd sizes, not the participants), on Palm Sunday and on Thursday. The one on Sunday was a daytime procession, the one on Thursday was in the evening (it went on until after midnight but I saw it around 10 pm). A small gallery of 34 images combines the two processions, chronologically:
