    Orthodox nuns and worshippers hold candles as they walk along the Via Dolorosa during a procession in Jerusalem's Old City early morning August 25, 2010. More than a thousand worshippers took part in the annual procession in which an icon of the Virgin Mary is carried from the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem's Old City to a church at the foot of the Mount of Olives believed by Christians to mark the tomb of the Virgin Mary.

    Procession in Jerusalem

    Pretty pictures coming out of this religious procession in Jerusalem today. Looks like there were photograhers there from all the major wire services. Which one do you like best?

    Solemn Celebration

    Some great photos coming out of Guatemala today. These photos are from the town of San Pedro Sacatepequez, where locals organize a three day event to honor San Pedro, the patron saint of the town. Rodrigo Abd did a fantastic job documenting the event.
