That's impressive indeed. (And much more convenient than having to wait for hours to get into the chapel...)

.........& having had the privilege of walking through this edifice some years ago the zoom facility allows one to see details on the ceiling that are denied the visitor despite the strategically placed mirror that saves one from getting a stiff neck. For those who have not been it may be interesting to point out the curtains are not real but also painted on the walls. Cheers Dave.

saves one from getting a stiff neck.

To ease the stiffness I took a look at my feet in bemusement.

Good find, Dave. Thanks.

...........how on earth did someone stitch this together? Seamless merging ................ DD

[HansV]

Many digital cameras come with a "stitch" program to create panorama photos, but for this one they undoubtedly used highly specialized software.
