A fine shot of this obviously serious pilgrim. The rosary in her hand makes clear what she is doing. Good detail.

I saw this in a documentary once. Well captured, now I know what the lady in the previous picture is doing.

Como se assim se escapasse à morte, à doença, à velhice...

@João Mourão: Acho que o melhor que pudemos fazer é agradecer... por tudo o que temos.

I always must respect people that actually "practice" their faith. So many people don't. Although I don't understand what and why they are doing what they are doing. Their faith is apparent! Your documentary is developing! Well done so far Ana!

What a beautiful shot Ana I am intrigued by the bandages on her knees it is obviously quite hard on them.

While attending my nephews (twins) baptism one Sunday afternoon, a man came into the church and walked on his knees from the back of the church to front and up the stairs to show his devotion during his own personal prayer ritual. It was the first thing I though of when I saw your photo. This past week has been a wonderful story. Thank you.

Mais um exemplo da irracionalidade da religião. Ai Nietzsche que saudades...
Nestas fotos falta-te algo importante no enquadramento: mostrar onde vai dar essa passadeira (ok, vai dar a alguma capela ou santuário, etc.., mas se o tivesses mostrado na foto teria ficado ainda melhor.

I didn't know that we could see such scene in Europe. Watching your picture I would have thought about a country like India.

Comparativamente, a "Promessa - Fátima IV" tem uma carga dramática maior.
Para além que o fundo da outra está desfocado (tem menor profundidade de campo), o que não o caso desta.
