Mount Vesuvius towers over the Bay of Naples. It is visible most of the time from Napoli to Sorrento. But, I was having a hard time getting a good photo of Vesuvius
until I visited Pompeii (about half way between Napoli and Sorrento).
This poor Pompeiian never knew what hit him in 79 A.D.
He just thought it was a good day to visit the public baths.

Thank you Jack. These are great.
Oh so many lovely memories, thank you Jack, looks like you are on almost the same journey as Aimee and I took a few years ago.. j'adore your images of the trip.
I remember these scenes, nice photographs, Jack !
I was on my way to Pompeii once, but never made it. Must be a special place. Did you find any fun graffiti?
My memory is SO bad; I recent;y saw a movie? documentary? with a scene of the "poor Pompeiian" . . .wonder what it was?
One of those places I wanted to visit when I lived in Europe -- but like Stefan, I never made it there either. Your pics are the next best thing!! Thanks for sharing! Looks as though you're enjoying another great trip!! Keep your camera in hand and continue to share the fun with us, Jack!!
A place I've always wanted to visit. Thanks, Jack!
Love to see Italy through your lens!

Sounds like you're having some fun. Quite a scenic. I always remember the Big Mt. V-. When she boiled over, Wow!
I would love to visit that place someday. Beautiful shots!
I suspect Kate may have seen the Pompeii film, which took long enough before the mountain finally got down to brass tacks and started showing off.
You always find great things to photograph. This set is special. Keep an eye on that volcano. It could go off at any time.
Wonderful shots Jack! I have always been fascinated by the story of Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius.
