Haiti Voodoo Festival in Saut d'Eau, in Saut d'Eau, Ville Bonheur, Haiti. Thousands of both Vodou and Catholic followers gathered under the Saut d'Eau waterfall in Haiti. The pilgrimage, made by Voodou practitioners and Catholics alike, originated with the sighting of the likeness of the Virgin Mary on a palm leaf close to the falls half a century ago. Catholism and Voodou practices are forever intertwined in its Haitian form. The appearance of a rainbow beneath the falls is said indicate that Danbala - the great lord of the waterfall - and Ayida Wedo - the rainbow - are making love. Fertility is a significant theme in the Saut D'eau ritual, attracting many couples who wish to become pregnant to the site. (Sergi Reboredo / VWPics via AP Images)
