Fürstenzug (Procession of the dukes)
The outside wall of the Langer Gang, the long passage which connects the Residenzschloss with the stables, is home to one of Dresden's most famous sights. This is the Furstenzug or Procession of The Dukes.
The mural depicts 35 noblemen altogether, from the 12th century Konrad the Great, to Friedrich August 111, Saxony's last king, who ruled from 1904-1918. It was originally painted by Wilhelm Walter between 1870 and 1876 but eventually, the stucco began to crumble and around 1906-'07 it was replaced by 25,000 Meissen tiles.

October Plenty, held 26 October, 2014
An Autumn harvest celebration held annually in Southwark. Beginning on the Bankside, by Shakespeare's Globe, October Plenty mixes ancient seasonal customs and theatre with contemporary festivity, joining with historic Borough Market, Southwark and Borough Market's Apple Day...
A huge Corn Queene effigy heavy with 'Plenty' - wheat, barley and other grains, and apples, root vegetables and foliage from the Borough Market - appears in a procession around the front of the Globe, Bankside, with the Company of actors and the time-honoured Hobby Horse in attendance, strung with cakes and loaves and led by the Berry Man...[an] Autumn incarnation of the original Green Man.

Religious procession float, North Road near Great George Street, Preston. Tuesday 05 September 1972
I presume in these days of H&S no one would now be permitted to stand up unless holding on to safety rails / scaffolding and the priest placing his hands on the girl would certainly not be allowed.

Sia questa foto che tutte le successive sono state scattate con una Canon 20D a 1600 ISO con la scarsa illuminazione stradale e con le fiammate prodotte dai falò allestiti in ogni quartiere.
"La descrizione del Venerdì di Pasqua a Sessa Aurunca è cosa complessa, ma dal vivo è uno spettacolo terribile e mirabile degno delle processioni spagnole in una delle più belle e storiche città della Campania.
Dalla Chiesa, gli incappucciati impersonificano i Misteri con la caratteristica cunnulella.
Il primo mistero si affaccia al portone; è la raffigurazione del primo Mistero doloroso, cioè Gesù nell'Orto del Getsemani con l'Angelo che gli offre il calice. Il secondo Mistero riproduce Gesù flagellato alla colonna.
Il terzo Mistero è l'Ecce Homo, cioè Gesù, incoronato di spine, seduto su uno sgabello con le mani legate e con una canna fra le stesse.
Il quarto Mistero, rievocante la seconda caduta di Gesù, sotto la pesante Croce, lungo la via del Calvario.
Dopo i Misteri viene portata da un confratello una grossa Croce sulla quale sono posti tutti i simboli principali della passione. Segue il Cristo Morto adagiato su una bara di legno, portata da confratelli anziani. Chiudono il corteo le Tre Marie, cioè tre statue riproducenti la Vergine Addolorata ed altre due donne (certamente Maria Maddalena ed un'altra persona).
Le Tre Marie indossano abiti neri e gioielli offerti dal popolo. In segno di penitenza i fratelli portano il volto coperto dal cappuccio bucato all'altezza degli occhi, e così vestiti, disposti dietro lo stendardo e tenuto da due giovani partecipanti, procedono in fila per due con le torce accese. Il corteo è seguito da una gran quantità di donne alluttate e scalze, che, recando pesanti ceri, pregano il Cristo affinché conceda loro la grazia richiesta.
L'incedere lento, ritmico, ondeggiante dei misteri è preannunziato dal lugubre suono di una cornetta che, suonata da un confratello fin dal mattino, prepara gli animi al passaggio del Cristo Morto. Al passaggio della processione si accendono i carraciuni (enormi falò formati da fascine raccolte e allestite nei vari quartieri in cui passa la processione)
Nel frattempo dagli angoli più angusti dei portali durazzeschi e catalani del centro storico i tre cantori del Miserere uniscono le loro teste e si levano le lamentose note del canto. Dopo aver attraversato via delle Terme e l'angusta via Paolini, la processione giunge alla Cattedrale ed attraverso via Garibaldi arriva in piazza.
Va poi nel rione San Leo, risale nella piazza Mercato per poi ridiscendere lungo Corso Lucilio diretta alla Chiesa. La strada del ritorno è certamente quella più suggestiva, la più toccante e romantica: i gruppi si dispongono l'uno dietro l'altro mentre riecheggiano il Canto del Miserere e la Marcia Funebre Vella (dal nome dell'autore). La processione tende poi a ritornare alla chiesa di San Giovanni a Villa."
Rogation Day Processions trace their roots to the church of Fifth-Century France when special prayers were offered just before the Feast of the Ascension because of earthquake and poor harvests. The early Roman church celebrated Rogation Days with a Christian procession around the fields on the Feast of St. Mark (April 25) to suppress the ancient pagan roman celebrations honoring the god "Mildew" and the goddess "Rust".
The Rogation Procession moves from a recognition of the sacred earth and Christian roots, to hope for fruits of the earth and fruits of the Spirits. We adapted this liturgy to our urban setting and bless the place where we serve in DC, praying for the fruit of connection with the many people that reside and work near Thomas Circle.
Easter procession in Antequera, Province of Málaga, Andalusia, Spain.
Antequera is a city in the "heart of Andalusia", situated centrally between Málaga, Granada, Córdoba and Seville. The city is overlooked by the Alcazaba from the 14th century and is home to many churches.
Antequera is well known for three large Bronze Age dolmens. A saltwater lagoon called "Fuente de Piedra" (being a nesting place of flamingos) and a karst landscape with bizarre rock formations, called "El Torcal", are nearby.

The parasols of Timkat
Deep in the heart of Africa, the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo (“One”) Church, attached to the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria, remained untouched by the theological struggles that marked the first five centuries of Christianity.
From the early 1300s until the late 1800s, the Ethiopian Orthodox Church was considered a diocese of the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria, and was placed under the authority of a bishop, called the Abuna. In 1959, it was granted its own Patriarch, who succeeded the five bishops previously consecrated by the Patriarch of Alexandria.
The Canon of the Tewahedo Church is based on the Septuagint Greek version of the Bible translated into the Ge’ez language, along with a handful of apocryphal books such as the Book of Jubilees, the Book of Enoch and the Faith of the Forefathers.
****
Timkat, the Ethiopian Epiphany, is celebrated every year in mid-January mostly at historical sites in Bahir Dar, Gonder, Aksum and Lalibela, amidst a great deal of religious fervour and colourful jubilation among the crowds of people. Pilgrims come from all over Ethiopia and even further afield, sparing no effort and using every available means of transport (including planes) to cross the wide distances that separate them from the festivities, which they would not miss for anything in the world.
***
The parasol
is the symbol of the perpetual power of religious leaders. It brings a note of solemnity to the event, while the richness of the fabrics and the hues of the brocades confer an aura of light and colour to the festival.
Intense moments that shall remain forever imprinted on my memory…
Ethiopia, January 2007

Gelatin-silver print. Photographer: Joh. Fr. Hoffmeister, Bremen. Unfortunately there is almost no info about Hoffmeister on the web.
He might have been active around 1910.
An account of a controversial Orange Procession in Glasgow in 1822, which was broken up the Magistrates, possibly fearing that the presence of nearby Catholics would result in conflict.
