About 3711 feet (1131 metres) up Mount Faito, part of the Monti Lattari mountain chain. (The Musei Vaticani is 157 miles from here. The vehicle driver does not seem to have regarded the refuse bin as very important?)

Sometimes it pays to look downwards. This delicate flower was very close to the rather grim 'concrete shed' in the adjacent picture. About 3711 feet (1131 metres) up Mount Faito, part of the Monti Lattari mountain chain. I believe that the plant is a bulb, Wildes Alpenveilchen (Cyclamen purpurascens).

Picture of the Bay of Naples taken from Mount Faito. The scene includes much of the area that was devastated by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 BCE; and of course the volcano itself. About 3711 feet (1131 metres) up Mount Faito, part of the Monti Lattari mountain chain.

The reflections from the cable car window make this picture resemble a double exposure. The reflected umbrellas, by happy accident, hover over the volcano crater. About 3711 feet (1131 metres) up Mount Faito, part of the Monti Lattari mountain chain. The crater of Mount Vesuvius can be seen (as clearly as the window will allow) with some white clouds passing by.
