03-22-15 The 11th Commandment (Flashback Sunday)

March 22, 2015 in Blog, Flashback, Travel

By Scott Shephard

You are looking at a replica of Michelangelo's famous depiction of Moses, who delivered the Ten Commandments to humanity. I suspect that I border on blasphemy by saying that I imagine that the 11th commandment might have been, "Thou shalt spend time in Southern California," which is where this photo was taken.

The "real" Moses is in Rome, incidentally, and is well worth a visit.

Canon 5DII 1/200s f/8.0 ISO100 55mm
