Papantla Flyers performing their ritual on a tall pole erected in front of the Iglesia de San Francisco de Asís in Cuetzalan, Puebla, Mexico
MomentPapantla Flyers performing their ritual on a tall pole erected in front of the Iglesia de San Francisco de Asís in Cuetzalan, Puebla, Mexico. Four men in red and white ceremonial outfits are attached to ropes and suspended from the top of the pole. They are in the process of descending in a spiraling motion, symbolizing the descent of birds from the sky. The stone church is visible in the background, with its tower reaching towards the sky. The sky is a light blue, partly cloudy.
