Marcus

Sunday, August 17th, 2008 by Kapa

Today was an absolutely gorgeous winters day in Sydney. The sun was beaming outside of St Andrews Greek Orthodox at Gladesville where I was grabbing candid photo’s of young Marcus, his family and friends before the service had started.

This one of Marcus and his mum caught my eye as soon as I took it, once I completed my post-processing of the day, it turned out to be my favourite. Love the way the sun is highlighting parts of their hair, and their relaxed natural expressions.

During the Christening, Pure olive oil is hallowed and administered to the various members of the infant’s body.

Marcus is then immersed thrice in the blessed water in the Name if the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Now what kind of magician doesn’t pull a rabbit out of a hat (or another place). After the final act the kids get to pat the rabbit then it was off to making balloon animals and shapes for them.
