Millions celebrate election of Pope Francis
Tens of thousands of people who braved cold rain to watch the smokestack atop the Sistine Chapel jumped in joy when white smoke poured out, many shouting "Habemus Papam!" or "We have a pope!" - as the bells of St. Peter's Basilica and churches across Rome pealed.
Catholics cheer after hearing the name of the new Pope as they gather beside a television broadcast point where the news was reported to them outside Westminster Cathedral in London, which is the Mother Church for Roman Catholics in England and Wales, Wednesday, March 13, 2013.
