Florence is one of my favorite destinations in Italy, and the chapel at Cappelle Medicee, mesmerizes me every time I am lucky enough to visit. The scale of the dome, exuding such high detail and near perfect symmetry, is difficult to capture. I waited until the watchful guard was distracted, and then laid flat on my back, holding the camera as steady as possible for a very short window before being yelled at by the watcher. The shot was worth it.
