I shot this from my window in Rome a couple years ago, today:

“This blog is rather like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” - Fr. Z

Simply breathtaking. Thank you.
Father,
its rather symbolic-that rainbow on the Feast of the Cathedra of St Peter granting God’s protection for our Beloved Pope

I remember the picture…
Gorgeous shot!
What a blessing to have such a view.

this photo has frequently been my desktop photo since you first published it. Gratias
Very lovely indeed.
It reminds me of this passage of the Christmas proclamation contained in the Ordinary form of the Roman Martyrology:
“…permultis etiam sæculis, ex quo post diluvium Altissimus in nubibus arcum posuerat, signum fœderis et pacis…”
Very very beautiful.
Beautiful photo, Father. Hopefully, you took more such photos on your recent trip. :)
