Charleston Cross

This was taken on a street in Charleston, South Carolina, one year ago.  He was walking with a purpose.  I really wanted to talk to him.

Have a happy Easter if you celebrate it.

  3. Was he going to join a religious procession, I wonder I suppose it was Good Friday. I have always been fascinated by the Penitentes in the Southwest, but now the practice seems to have been practiced and/or spread to many different areas.

    Happy Easter or Passover to you and to your friends and loved ones!

  7. Christ is probably thinking, "Why didn't I or one of my disciples think of putting wheels on the cross?"

  10. I would have told him to let it go, someone needs the wood.

  11. I've never really understood the theology of this kind of thing...people walk across the country hauling a cross. I can't see what that accomplishes, except for a very sore back and worn out shoes! :-)

  13. For a split second I thought he had blood on the tee-shirt and thought nope, that can't be... Happy Easter to you and yours Jack!

  14. Don't think the original had wheels or a shoulder pad. That misses the spirit somehow. Great picture, however.

  15. The wheels made me smile - but sensible I guess. Our local churches had a march of witness on Good Friday but what with decorating and a heavy cold I gave it all a miss this year.

  21. Now that's a sight you would only see at Easter, and maybe even then not so often. Great capture Jack. Hope you had a wonderful Easter also.
