Darth Vader Joins a Cult

Darth Vader seems to want to join the priests of the State Church of Iceland as they marched in procession to the cathedral for their annual congress.

Unfortunately, the priests didn't want to play with Darth. Fortunately, I was there to capture it in photographs with a friend's Nikkor 18-200VR lens. Unfortunately, the more a lens does the less I seem to remember to keep tabs on it (I'm supposed to zoom this thing as well?) and the photos suffer.

I didn't notice that the light was a lot worse by the cathedral (it sucks in light, I swear) and the photos from there, on top of everything else, are shot at a much too low shutter speed. Fortunately (sorry!) the VR saved me from my own shakes.

Also check out the video from the scene.
