Hi,
I was one on many international PJ's covering the WYD e blah blah blah.....
I saw a lot of pictures around the globe about the events and about the Pope so i don't want bothering you any more .....and so this is my different view.
I Hope you like it.
Cheers

I agree. I love the guy in the first one near the front looking up to the sky, with his face in the light. I'm an athiest but it looks kind of symbolic to me! :roll: I also like the guy with the bright p & s in the second.

Fab - It's great to see some of your work, my favourite here is #2 closely follow by #1, the P&S is just a classic moment nicely captured, as has been said #1 the light add some real drama and the different expressions from the holymen really makes it.

As Glen said some the best shots of WYD I've seen!

I agree with the second photo being great.
It goes to show that technology affects us all.
How long until we visit the vatican and find the walls covered in photos rather than paintings. haha

Cheers guys! :cheers:

Yep, I've tried to catch the WYD with a different view.
I was there as media reporting with non "influence" and I'm glad to hear that from you.
Yes first and second are my favourite third is sort of International "Brotherhood" , I got Pope pics as well but we all have seen to many around, in all poses and colours.... we will be satisfied till next jubileum. :lol: :lol:

Image PS:
Even if I've Italian origin and background, I'm yes catholic (when you are a kid and you live in a catholic country especially in Rome you are forced to do stuff even if you wont it :( :shock: ) but I'm non praticant since....too long.
Now form me it's time and it's better shut up and start praying ! :lol: :lol:

Thanks.

nice pics there!
i think there's a few other members who were lucky enough to shoot at this mammoth event *coughhamstercough*
i'd have to say the last pic does it for me - captures emotion and the sheer crowd. great job!

Haha, Jethro your right.
It looks like a scene from starwars if the Siths turned up for the council meeting.
