Pics from Sevilla, Spain during Semana Santa (Holy Week). The pics include pictures of many of the processions that took place during this week in 2007. Processions leave from the cathedral at noon every day. The processions, which date back to the sixteenth century, are organised by cofradías, brotherhoods with up to three thousand members, that are aligned to churches in the city. The participants are hooded in order to protect the anonymity of the sinners seeking forgiveness. The processions are led by Nazarenos dressed in long hooded gowns. These are followed by penitents dragging crosses on their shoulder, and finally costaleros who carry statues, known as pasos, on a float which represent scenes from the passion, death and resurrection of Christ. The slow shuffle of the costaleros from their local church, taking the shortest route to the cathedral through the narrow streets of the old city, can take hours.
