OK, so we technically violated the photography rule in the Sistine Chapel

Yes, we were not to be deterred by some little sign that suggested that photos were not allowed in the Sistine Chapel. I mean, this is THE SISTINE CHAPEL. So, Buddy and I along with the rest of the 300+ people packed inside the Sistine Chapel took photos to our heart's content, even thought the guards were "Ssshhhing" us and the recorded message said that no photos were allowed.

Photos enlarged to your viewing pleasure. All I can say, is that Michelangelo was quite a dude!
