Saw the Sistine Chapel a couple of years ago. This is actually much better. When you go into the Sistine, the room is very, very dark and crowded. You are not allowed even to have your camera visable or you are warned they will remove it. The only item missing is the incrediable sense of awe and wonder being witnessed by so many.

They did major restoration in the last few years...at least since I was there in the 1980s.
Here's a bit of fun with screen capture and Photoshop.
I'm pretty sure I'm OK with Michaelangelo's copyright...
God gives life to Adam...

Stunning......!!!
Thanks.
I have to say I impressed myself on this one!
It is quite amazing to see it more like it was when the artist completed it. Stunning indeed.

Nippon TV filmed every minute of the 9 years the restoration took - anyone know of a highlight show?
