I was kind a lucky. Went to Italy for my job and got to spent an extra day in the beautiful town of Ravenna. This is the painting in the dome of the San Vitale church, a splendid little church that also contains some magnificent mosaics. The hardest part was obviously coping with the low light conditions. I managed to keep my small 35mm prime steady for 1/8s by leaning against a pillar.

This is so pretty. I love the purple hue. It's very cool to look and see all the details in the dome. It's almost like looking at a purple sky with fancy clouds.
