Venezia
Riflessioni, Venezia
The lights and the shimmering water make this one of my favorite Venice images I’ve taken recently. It was late at night, the city was asleep except for the odd vaporetto idling by (the stern marker light from one is visible in the lower left). Quiet, stoic, enveloping.

Venice’s Cruise Ship Problem: This Is What Should Happen
We’ve been arguing in favor of something like this for some time, and when Doug pointed me to this article, it was somewhat encouraging–but unfortunately the forces working against the lagoon’s best interests are well monied and have Mayor Brugnaro’s backing.
Ghosts of Zanipolo
One of the perks of frequently being in Venice in the off season–the sparse crowds at night in popular campi and piazze afford the chance to get one or two folks off in the distance for a long exposure shot.
By dialing back the clarity and upping the masking, you get this ghostly effect that I really like.
Venice In Danger
Please visit Venice, but do so sustainably.
Torcello Flowers
Before winter descends on the Veneto and all the tourists are gone, the subtle corners of the remote islands of the Venetian lagoon share their colors in quiet fall splendor.

Grazie, Antiche Locanda Montin
One of our favorite restaurants in Venice shared my photo of their fabulous linguine alle seppie. Delicious…and not a bad shot if I say so myself. 🙂
Mazzorbo Tramonto
The sun setting behind the clouds as the vaporetto takes us past Mazzorbo, a beautiful little island next to Burano in the Venetian lagoon that we can’t wait to explore more. It’s a tired word, yes, but the only one that works for this view to our minds is “heavenly.” See you there! And definitely click to enlarge to really appreciate.
