This isn't even the main pipe organ.
We went to a huge basilica today to check out the Easter celebrations. Supposedly there was something called the Burning of Judas at the end of the day, but we had to leave before then. There were a tonne of people (all Argentines, very few tourists know about this place, it is about two hours out of town, after all) getting everything blessed (Chris saw a guy holding up his car keys as the priest blessed the people) and buying all kinds of holy stuff.
(There are shops here called santarías that sell nothing buy religious items. There were a lot around the basilica.)
Anyway, this shot of the side pipe organ turned out nicely. I couldn't get the huge one at the back of the church.
This was the largest church I've even been in before.

@Dad: No, I had one, but there were people praying and I would've had to kinda step on the altar to take a picture. Plus there was a big chandelier in way.
PREVIEW ONLY
