"Truly, it is the indescribable sweetness of contemplation which you give to those who love you. In this you have shown the tenderness of your charity, that when I had no being you made me; and when I strayed away from you, you brought me back again to serve you and commanded me to love you." The Imitation of Christ

Good Friday...
The Good Friday Liturgical Action of the Passion isn't very photogenic, at least not in the Novus Ordo - the altar is stripped bare, and a lot of what is going on is very "static." I've never attended the Good Friday service in the usus antiquior, though, so maybe it is equally bleak.
Nevertheless, I have a small selection of photos over on Flickr...

I have some images of the pre-1956 Good Friday.
I can't remember what it is like in the EF. But, I find it very tiring at 7 o'clock at night. I wish it was earlier. I do not know the EF rubrics, but I wish the priest donned a chasuble only after the Adoration of the Cross. My priest did not know-evidently he didn't study the Missal- that he is supposed to remove that and his shoes for Adoration.
