Cittá del Vaticano - Vatican City

Crowds of tourists roam St. Peter's Baslilica every day, luckily I got there early and didn't have to battle massive crowds.

Cathedra Petri - Altar of the Chair of St. Peter

The railing to Michelangelo's Dome is, thankfully, covered in a thin metal mesh - and, thus, the cloudy edges of the photograph. Nonetheless, this helps communicate more than any other photo I took just how high up the dome is and, also, just how unbelievably big the cathedral is. Notice the small dots at the bottom - those are people. I'm afraid of heights and was not at all comfortable standing on this thing stone walk way that is god-knows-how-many-years old. At this point, we're probably 350' above cathedral floor...

Another shot of the dome.

It's really impossible to describe just how big St. Peter's Basilica is - even at 24mm I wasn't able to capture it floor-to-ceiling (counting the dome). I tried to include people in these shots to give context, but it doesn't do much justice.
