Easter Images

Most of these still Easter images from Calvary Chapel Worship Center are taken in ambient lighting (i.e.,without a flash) to avoid distracting the actors or audience.

Talented Pastor Jill Buyea writes and directs the Christmas and Easter story plays at Calvary Chapel Worship Center in New Port Richey, Florida.

More Images Of The Easter Cross

The Crucifixion from a different perspective.

"After this Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said, to fulfil the Scripture, "I thirst." A bowl full of vinegar stood there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop and held it to His mouth. When Jesus had received the vinegar, He said, "It is finished"; and He bowed His head and gave up His spirit." (John 19:23-30 RSV)

Mary Wept

This is, perhaps, my favorite Easter picture because of Mary's emotion. I was able to use a flash because it was a rehearsal.

It is also a wonderful example of the power of cropping as this detail is just a portion of a larger photo of the cross with a group of women weeping at its base over Jesus prone form.

The Women At Jesus Tomb

A less than perfect Easter image makes an interesting cartoon using Photoshop filters, Sumie and Smudge. The exposure was also adjusted and the entrance to the tomb was colored black (the lighting had originally colored it yellow).

Jesus Resurrection!

"Up from the grave He arose
With a mighty triumph o'er His foes"!

"O grave, where is your sting?"

Without the resurrection of Jesus from the grave, there is no Christianity.

Because He lives, we too can live! Jesus has done all the work through His life, death and resurrection!

All that is required of us is to accept His free gift of salvation by receiving Jesus as Savior and Lord.

Then we too will resurrect to life everlasting with Him!

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16

Pre-Crucifixion Images

The Last Supper

While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, "Take and eat; this is my body." Matthew 26:26

Another version of the Last Supper. I've given this Easter image a more somber mood by using a Colored Pencil filter, reducing opacity and selectively dodging and burning. Exposure was corrected first.

In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me." I Corinthians 11:25

The Garden of Gethsemene

Jesus Praying. This could easily be Jesus in the Garden before He was crucified. (This is one of my favorite images from the Calvary Chapel Worship Center productions, but I'm not sure of the exact scene.)

An Easter Collage

It was taken during a rehearsal so I was able to use a flash. I actually prefer the Easter photos my husband, Tom, took without a flash, so I used layers, cloning and filters to create the illusion of ambient lighting.
