The picture above was taken on June 14, 1998, in Flavigny-sur-Ozerain, France, where a schismatic sect of ultra-conservative Catholics still perform a traditional Corpus Christi procession.
Flavigny is a walled medieval village, and the Host is carried around the walls and then through the town; handfuls of rose petals are cast before the feet of the seminarians who carry it.
