Immersion in Greek Orthodox Church Photo

Photographer’s Note

Me and my wife were invited to participate in this celebration. A priest and grandparent of the child let me to photograph. Little boy has just decided to cry (after third bath). It was unexpected and unbelieveable experience for me

Really good photo.
This is a TE photo: you has show to us a tradition of the greek culture and also part of the ortodoxian church.
And not only this, the photo has really something special: in first place the priest and the child, and behind you can see faces smiling and watching the baptism (I supouse that's a bapstism).
Well done.

Sensational!

bardzo fajne zdjecie, ladnie uchwycony moment, nieskomplikowana ale dobra kompozycja, chociaz sam nie wiem co myslec o tych dwoch glowach po obu stronach, zreszta moga byc. no i dziecko jest troche 'rozmazane', moze po prostu sie poruszylo, ostrosc jest na tym kaplanie. ale zdjecie i tak fajne

Hello Rafal,
it is a common icon to Greeks but I think not common to TrekEarth.
Very nice composition and the best POV.
Thank you for sharing with us.
Best wishes, Athanasios.
