A fountain (the Swans Fountain) already existed her from 1636, under the reign of Louis XIII, which Louis XIV decorated with the impressive and celebrated group in gilded lead representing Apollo on his chariot. The work of Tuby, after a drawing by Le Brun, it is inspired by the legend of Apollo, the Sun gold and emblem of the king. Tuby produced this monumental group between 1668 and 1670 at the Manufacture des Gobelins, and it was then transported to Versailles and installed and gilded the following year.

Apollo 16 (April 16 – 27, 1972) was the tenth crewed mission in the United States Apollo space program, administered by NASA, and the fifth and next-to-last to land on the Moon. It was the second of Apollo's "J missions", with an extended stay on the lunar surface, a focus on science, and the use of the Lunar Roving Vehicle (LRV).
The mission was crewed by Commander John Young, Lunar Module Pilot Charles Duke and Command Module Pilot Ken Mattingly. Launched from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on April 16, 1972, Apollo 16 experienced a number of minor glitches en route to the Moon. These culminated with a problem with the spaceship's main engine that resulted in a six-hour delay in the Moon landing as NASA managers contemplated having the astronauts abort the mission and return to Earth, before deciding the problem could be overcome. Although they permitted the lunar landing, NASA had the astronauts return from the mission one day earlier than planned.
My brother's cat Apollo with his Christmas present finally opened for him: from then on he had a starring role as the catnip impregnated toys inside drove him to behaviour rooted in total ecstasy. None of us had ever seen a cat under the influence of catnip and the results were a revelation. Our early family Christmas was occasioned by Dave's family's impending departure to Finland in the small hours of Boxing Day. Apollo is blissfully unaware of his own impending departure to the cattery...

Critiques/tips/thoughts welcome. I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to shooting, and I only know the very basics of Lightroom.

Apollo and Daphne (1622–1625) was the last special sculpture Bernini completed for Cardinal Borghese’s private collection. It is among the finest Bernini and Baroque marble sculptures ever made.
The 243 cm (96 in) high marble sculpture group depicts the climax of Ovid’s Metamorphoses: Apollo, fated by Cupid’s love-exciting arrow made of pure gold, had chased and finally caught the nymph Daphne. However, Daphne, fated by Cupid’s love-repelling arrow made of lead, begs for help from her father — the river god Peneus. Rather than fighting Apollo off, Daphne is being transformed into a laurel tree. Her fingers are sprouting leaves. Her feet are turning into roots. Apollo grabs her flesh but gets only a handful of bark, which is also used to ensure the otherwise naked Daphne the right amount of modesty required by the period.
The detailing of the leaves, the lightness of Daphne’s hair, and the bellowing cape of Apollo are incredibly delicate for a marble statue. Similarly, few sculptors would attempt the free-hanging and unsupported left leg of Apollo.
The sculpture is best appreciated from the front right where Apollo’s lust and Daphne’s horror may be seen simultaneously. From certain angles from the rear, only Apollo is seen — it appears as if Daphne is already just a tree. Also when viewed from behind, Apollo’s cape sometimes seems to form an odd roll but only a slight step to the side reveals the material fantastically flying in the wind quite at odds with the natural stiffness of white marble.
The Borghese Gallery is one of the top art museums to visit in Rome. The art on display is of the best quality and the small, almost intimate villa, is much easier to enjoy than the vast packed exhibition halls of the Vatican Museums. Highlights include the largest single collection of Caravaggio paintings in the world, several Bernini sculptures, Canova's Pauline Borghese as Venus, and paintings by top artists such as Raphael, Titian, Correggio, Domenichino, Rubens, and Cranach. Admissions are limited with time-slot reservation tickets essential to secure the two hours visitors are allowed to spend in the villa.
