Hope I don't bore you with my ceiling fresco collection. This one is from San Pantaleo, a medieval church that has been rebuilt in the 17th century with paintings typical of the time.
You've captured gorgeous detail, MS. A wonderful shot.

@Michael Skorulski: Some of these churches always do you the favour and provide good light. I was there in winter and it was bright enough. Then I just laid the camera on the floor and used the remote release... God, I just love these churches.
wondeful pic...really!..great details!

@Witchpanther: I really appreciate your comment since I assume that you certainly see photos like this (and their originals) quite often. My eyes are somewhat undernourished and always hungry for paintings and rooms like that.
nice paintings

@eddy: They're done by Philippi Gherardi [1687-92] if I translate this text correctly.

@Pouhou: Thank you :-)
Would be difficult to get bored viewing such masterful paintings. Since I'll never get to see them first hand, I'm glad you post them. Thanks!

@Dang: Thank you very much! There are many more, but this is one I'm really satisfied with. To be continued...
Ausserordentlich und wirklich atemberaubend!! Hattest Du anschliessend keine Nackenschmerzen?! ;-)

@Michael: Diese Art Aufnahmen sind eigentlich die einfachsten: ich lege die Kamera auf den Boden und benutze den Fernauslöser :-) In manchen Kirchen - großer Luxus - ist sogar der Mittelpunkt des Hauptschiffes im Boden gekennzeichnet, z.B. um den optimalen Beobachtungspunkt zu haben. Bei dieser Art Foto hat man auch keinen Streß mit Leuten, die ins Bild hineinlaufen und ein Stativ muß man auch nicht aufbauen. Die Kirchen hier vor Ort sind mein bevorzugter 'Trainingsplatz', an dem ich Kamera, Objektive, Einstellungen ausprobiere. Wenn's dann in den Riesentempeln 'ernst' wird, ist man gleich viel ruhiger :-)
@Porcsin: To be continued... I see! ;)

@Porcsin: There's still more... :)
It is a beautiful ceiling and you did a graet job by the way you have captured it. Beautiful colors and very good framing

@Frankie: Thank you! It was a lucky day with perfect winter light.
Not boring. More like fabulous.

@Sarala: Thanks a lot! But I'm just the photographer ;)
I could just stare at the for a while....

@Brittney: So did I when I was there :-)
Very, very nice.

@alexdpx: Thanks a lot! These are the original colours, no post-processing. :)
Great composing! Love it.

@Hai: Thanks a lot!
Wow, such a beauty.

@Fotoptikon: Yes, a magnificent painting - but not the most spectacular you can find in Rome :-)
i appreciate the art, in all its form..and you, with your photo, capture the best!

@Witchpanther: *blush* Thank you very much! Your praise gives me pleasure!
Lovely shot!

@Steven: Thanks! It's a very beautiful church, too.
You are not boring us at all. I personally like the ceiling pictures and this one is terrific. A master piece painting well framed.

@Laurent: Thank you, much appreciated!
Awesome, you don't bore but let us enjoy! Very professional too because it's not a piece of cake picturing something like this, congratulations!

@Illuci: Thank you so much! It's not so difficult to make such photographs: you just have to lay down your camera on the floor and to use a remote shutter release. Just try it out in your local church!
