A passionate Passion play

I couldn't resist trying to capture the scene of an aerial acrobatic Jesus ascending into heaven at the end of a quite wonderful Passion play in St Paul's cathedral in Melbourne.
The story was told by women, 12 of them, singing Italian opera and dancing a form of modern ballet. Jesus was flogged down the aisles, crucified and then ascended via a rope suspended in the sanctuary.
My Italian is worse than sketchy, but listening to the Baroque music, including Handel, was a joy in itself.
