Hi all,

Spain has many traditions, the "Semana Santa" (Holy Week) is very popular 
and quite different in Andalucia, Catalunya or other. Here I show you a very 
old medieval tradition in the village of Verges, a nice small town where is 
celebrated the procession the thursday night and the "Dance of Death".

I've tried to follow Dr. Ted's advice "if you can see it, you can shot it". 
It was really available light, almost dark, and subjects in movement, I 
don't like use the flash (I've tried it ony in 3 pictures), my M8 was setted 
at ISO2500 but the pictures are very noisy, maybe with film I've get better 
results. However I want share with you a general view to this nice village, 
the procession and the famous "Dance of Death" (in catalan: Dansa de la 
mort).

Thanks for looking, I'll appreciate your comments and critics

Saludos cordiales
Lluis
