Photographer's Note
On Good Friday (Lent Season), some devout Catholic sinners in the Philippines atone for their sins by cutting their backs, then whipping their own wounded backs with sticks tied to a rope as they walk the streets.
In Barangay Cutud, Pampanga, this ritual even includes some people being actually nailed on crosses (though they survive the ordeal).

I have not seen one for ages! You have recorded this very nicely, good colors, the blood on a white t-shirt, the dust of the street very visible beyond the subjects, the crowd of people and the crosses all in a diagonal path from right lower right hand corner(with the bloody t-shirt) cutting diagonally across to the top left hand corner with the crosses. Good work!
