Papa Francisco (III)

Like buses, Popes tend to come in threes after a long wait! Here's my third daily shot of Papa Francisco in Rio for World Youth Day. He truly is a magnet for drawing out the faithful and many others as well. I couldn't get as close as yesterday as all the many thousands who slept on the Copacabana front got to the prime positions first, but at least it is in focus and given the fact I could hardly see what I was shooting with the iPad held aloft, and just had to pray that my thumb hit the button at least once, it's not too bad. So, Papa F., if you or your Boss had anything to do with my timing and millimetric placing today, THANK YOU!

This is live a shot as you can get, posted just ten minutes after shooting this morning at about 9.15 am.
