This is a test post in preparation for my New Years challenge to post one photo per day on this website.
This photograph was taken in Rome, Italy. My wife and I are standing on the roof of the Castle St. Angelo. Behind us the Vatican City is in view, with the dome of St. Peter’s Basillica standing prominently. The lower buildings to the right of the church are the Vatican Museums, where the Sistine Chapel is located. It was a terrific day, very warm and sunny, and in a location that could not be beat. We had been talking with a retired couple from California who volunteered to take this photo. It has turned out to be one of my favorite travel photos and a personal favorite photo of my wife and myself.
