A live re-enactment of the passion of the Christ? I know that was make-up on his back, but the photo still made me wince :? What happened to a cute little furball hiding and passing out chocolate eggs :D

Great photos tho, the white balance was just right :)

The lady in the photo could have been a bit sharper and the colours a bit warmer so that she didn't look quite as pale.

Hi christiand
Martin Place at 2pm. (Sydney). It was just one of those things that I blundered in to.

I wonder if they'll do a renactment of how chocolate corporations decided to cash in on the egg eating tradition of christmas...

I saw something similar (but not as bloody) outside North Sydney Post Office at about 11am today (Australia Post is one of the stations of the cross apparently!!!)...

This is not something I've come across before...
Is this a new phenomena??? Is Hillsong having an effect???

The girl in the middle of the second shot is cute.

And your photos are good.

As to why they do it, who knows.

Ooops
I was using the compuer at Birdies and Fozzie had been logged in. I sent the above Fozzie post accidently. Sorry Fozzie. By the way, Fozzie was taking some nice shots at Birdies using a plethora of available optics.
