The Easter Cross

As part of the Easter celebrations my local parish church erects a wooden cross and adorns it with flowers. This is done by the congregation just before the Easter morning service. I think it is a lovely idea and little children bring flowers to place on the Easter Cross. The Church ‘Flower Ladies’ help to adorn the cross with the flowers.

The top photo was taken by me later in the day after it had stopped raining.  The one below (not taken by me) shows my Mum and and a friend of hers after they had finished placing the last of the flowers on the cross.

    It’s so inspiring. Beautiful to see the two friends-angels near the flowered cross.

    What a great idea, it’s like a Derbyshire Well dressing.
    I was at the BBC Great North Passion filmed live in South Shields on Good Friday. A bit more difficult to work out as it was all about the art. Got some great shots up my sleeve though for an appropriate moment.

      I am looking forward to seeing your shots of that day. I know they will be good and that you will have the perfect commentary to go with them (as always).
