Saturday Snapshot...the Vatican, Part 2...


For more of this week's Saturday Snapshots, visit Alyce with At Home With Books.

Since I miss missing perusing my pictures from Italy two years ago, and since Instagram has made me stamp my foot, here are two more of my favorite shots of the Vatican. Beautiful sky. I loved everything about our honeymoon because no matter when you took a picture, no matter what you took a picture of, it always looked so beautiful.

Saturday Snapshot...the Vatican...


From my honeymoon to Italy two years ago, a shot of the Vatican from the dome on top of St. Peter's Basilica. What I love most about this picture is not just the obelisk at the center and the immensity of the courtyard (is it called that?), but it is, in fact, the saints. It is those impeccable statues at the top lining the roof, almost keeping watch.
