015 – Sistine Chapel

Ok, the Sistine Chapel. I was lucky enough to snap two quick pictures while being shoulder to shoulder with other pilgrims and tourists. It really is an unreal feeling to have your eyes drawn up to the genius of Michelangelo and the true beauty he presents. In the iconic “Creation of Adam,” God reaches out to Adam at full extension, while Adam does not reciprocate the effort of God. It is quite moving when you consider that God is ALWAYS giving 100% in our lives. If you look closely at the cloak behind God, it is in the shape of a human heart.

Here is the “Day of Judgment” behind the altar:

Yeah, its pretty lit.
