Apologies if you've all seen this before, but it's new to me and I felt like sharing.

These 360 view things are great aren't they!!
I first saw one from someone who does Urban Exploring abroad, most excellent viewing IMO:smt080

How can we be certain that Michelangelo was gay?

Because if he'd been straight, he'd have painted the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in white, with a roller :D

Seriously, that's awesome.

Was there last June. Its stunning but there are many other rooms that are better but they weren't painted by anyone famous (or gay)

What, paint naked people all over the inside of a church?

Awesome. It's fantastic. But TBH I can't cope with the beauty of holiness.

There's a lovely Primitive Methodist chapel not far from where I live, in a tiny spot called Stanwardine in north Shropshire, between here and Ellesmere. It's one of Shropshire's hidden gems. It has a clay brick tablet on the outside with the verse:

'Come in thou blessed of the Lord,
Wherefore standest thou without?'

...and its simplicity does far more for me that the Sistine Chapel, beautiful as it is.

Can't stop laughing at that comment! Brilliant=D>


I thought that place was a lot bigger then it seems in that 360 view.

[Quedos]

Thats amazing!! Never knew it was so detailed.

[DaveyF]

Span it round a bit too fast, now feel dizzy and a bit sick.

Impressive though.

You can always count on church paintings for a bit of amateur porn.
be it gay or straight its every where dirty gits.

On my 'World Tour of bits of Europe' I visited the Vatican last September, but daren't go inside in case I got molested, me looking so young and all :-)

I got a photo of my bike outside St Peter's Square though
