The Dome of St. Peter’s — Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Arch, Dome or Half Circle

Here is another entry in Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Arch, Dome or Half Circle.

We took an eight week around the world trip in 2013. To structure the trip, we decided to visit as many religious sites as possible. Our trip included ancient Egyptian temples, cathedrals, Hindu and Jain temples, a Jewish synagogue, and Buddhist shrines.

One of our stops was St. Peter’s Basilica. It was breathtaking. The following is one of our favorite images from that stop. This is the view looking straight up at the dome with light streaming through the windows.
