Christo Rey, Guanajuato



I spent the day making the pilgrimage to the center of Mexico. When you stare into Christs face, he is certainly staring back with what might just be the most compassionate face I have ever laid my eyes upon. It was a day of atonement, one hour in the driving rain my hands gone numb, then leaving at sunset with a face that shown an agonizing rojo.
