Vatican View
St. Peter's Basilica and St. Angelo Bridge
by Michael

Here's the typical photo of the Vatican one has to take when visiting Rome :-) I didn't get a colorful sunset that evening, but the blue hour as usual didn't dissapoint and once all the city lights went on it looked quite magical.

Also, if you have a few minutes and are interested in post processing, my newest youtube tutorial about advanced masking and selections in photoshop might be of interest for you.

Ragusa Ibla
Ragusa Ibla
by Walter Maurer

An evening in Ragusa. I chose this spot for the best evening light. A general view of "Ragusa Ibla", the old Ragusa. In 1693 it was devastated by a huge earthquake, which killed 5.000 inhabitants. After that catastrophe the city was largely rebuilt, and many Baroque buildings from this time are still there.

The Dome
Inside the Dome
by Mario Calma

Florence Cathedral

Grand Duke Cosimo I de' Medici decided to have the dome painted with a representation of The Last Judgment. This enormous work, 3,600 metres² (38 750 ft²) of painted surface, was started in 1568 by Giorgio Vasari and Federico Zuccari and would last till 1579. The upper portion, near the lantern, representing The 24 Elders of Apoc. 4 was finished by Vasari before his death in 1574. Federico Zuccari and a number of collaborators, such as Domenico Cresti, finished the other portions: (from top to bottom) Choirs of Angels; Christ, Mary and Saints; Virtues, Gifts of the Holy Spirit and Beatitudes; and at the bottom of the cupola: Capital Sins and Hell. These frescoes are considered Zuccari's greatest work. But the quality of the work is uneven because of the input of different artists and the different techniques. Vasari had used true fresco, while Zuccari had painted in secco. During the restoration work, which ended in 1995, the entire pictorial cycle of The Last Judgment was photographed with specially designed equipment and all the information collected in a catalogue. All the restoration information along with reconstructed images of the frescos were stored and managed in the Thesaurus Florentinus computer system. (Wiki)

Abbey of Sant'Antimo
by Jean François Bonachera

L'église actuelle a été construite au début du 12ème siècle, mais les origines de l'abbaye sont beaucoup plus anciennes. La légende fait remonter la fondation de Sant'Antimo au IXe siècle, à l'époque du Saint-Empire romain, dirigé par l'empereur Charlemagne, qui est considéré comme le fondateur d'une chapelle, appelée chapelle carolingienne, et qui correspond à la sacristie

Bridge of Sighs
Bridge of Sighs
by Alan Taylor

My website: Deep Mono Photography

The Bridge of Sighs (Italian: Ponte dei Sospiri) is a bridge located in Venice, northern Italy. The enclosed bridge is made of white limestone and has windows with stone bars. It passes over the Rio di Palazzo and connects the New Prison (Prigioni Nuove) to the interrogation rooms in the Doge's Palace. It was designed by Antonio Contino (whose uncle Antonio da Ponte had designed the Rialto Bridge) and was built in 1600.

The view from the Bridge of Sighs was the last view of Venice that convicts saw before their imprisonment. The bridge name, given by Lord Byron in the 19th century, comes from the suggestion that prisoners would sigh at their final view of beautiful Venice through the window before being taken down to their cells. In reality, the days of inquisitions and summary executions were over by the time the bridge was built and the cells under the palace roof were occupied mostly by small-time criminals. In addition, little could be seen from inside the Bridge due to the stone grills covering the windows. - Wikipedia

Santa Maddalena val di Funes
by Adelheid Smitt

I was so happy when I finally managed to photograph this iconic spot in golden Autumn weather. It had been on my wish list for a long time. Little was I to know that it would be the last photo with my camera. The following day my car was broken into and ALL my photography equipment (cameras, lenses, tripods, filters etc) was stolen. A very black day and sad day. (Earlier photo from Val di Funes: www.flickr.com/photos/adelheids-pictures/40857406901
