In Chains
A detail from the Good Friday Procession of Xaghra Gozo (Malta). It is a custom in my country that people pray God for a 'favour' (example to be healed from a sickness). They make a vow-that if what they ask for is granted they carry chains in the Good Friday Procession. These people are infact honouring their vows. It is also a custom to wear such clothing as to hide their identity.

Thanks for your interest in this photo.A detail from the Good Friday Procession of Xaghra Gozo (Malta).

Also had time to look at your photos. I like a lot the photo "Where the streets have no name"
Cheers
