Santo Cristo dos Milagres ..His day in May.. São Miguel Azores

Over 300 years of tradition..the popular religious festival here in Ponta Delgada. The image of Senhor Santo Cristo is mysteriously captivating.
Many comment that regardless of your faith (or lack of it) it is impossible to be indifferent to His face, battered and bruised,...your gaze is caught by His and something stirs in your soul...
..at times battered and bruised internally..a feeling of calm..a soothing sadness.
