San Fermín procession pictures (July 7)

July 7 is San Fermín's day. After the first bull run, the statue of the saint leaves the chapel of San Lorenzo and is carried through the streets of the Old Town, escorted by the giants and big-heads, music and thousands of people. It is the most solemn moment of the festival — and one of the most photogenic.
