I call this one "the woman in red."

Please keep a posting this is very cool stuff, but one thought did occur to me about what sort of things you think of when in a place like St Peter's basilica? Not meaning any religious argument here just your POV.
Here's my POV in seeing St Peter's basilica. It's the home church for the catholics, a religion that have been in existence for some two thousand years. Many have followed its religious tenets for all these years; many believing in its teachings.
By the standards of architectural beauty, it's second to none for cathedrals/churches in this world. The balance, size, and age speaks to the skills employed in creating this edifice. St Peter is supposed to be buried in the tomb of St Peter's. It has much religious significance for its adherants.
I love to see beautiful architecture, and this is one of the most famous.
Most of the following pictures will not require words.
Another view from "up there."
