The crowds were too large to get near anything, so I and sister Oaxacan blogger, S (The View from Casa Colibri) cut over to Garcia Vigil and awaited the procession as it headed back. The crowds weren't even crowds, just a few spectators. The sun was getting low so shooting was tough, but this year daylights savings has kicked in, so at least it was not dark as it was last year.
It is ethereal to watch this celebration in silence, really moving at times. The images can speak for themselves.

Few words are needed with your beautiful photos. Thanks for giving me the majesty of Semana Santa.
Thank you for posting so frequently and promptly. It makes me feel I am getting up-to-the-minute news. Better than the Associated Press!!
I can see from your photos that I have to be in Oaxaca next Easter. I have experienced the other holidays, now it is time for Easter.
