Photos

I am amazed at how few photos of the chapel are on TE. Most photos you see of the chapel center around the "God Creates Adam" by Michelangelo. Here is a view that doesn't get seen often.

The chapel was EXTREMELY crowded at the time this was taken. This is a photo stitch of many photos using Photomatrix, and all photos were handheld.

UPDATE: Much to my embarrassment, I verified that Maria's comment below about no photography allowed in the chapel is indeed correct. Perhaps because of the crowds, the signs stating this were obscured, and many, many people were also taking photos, with no concern from the security personnel.

I never ever knowingly violate a particular location's photography policy.
