Description
Venice, Italy, is without a doubt, one of the most enchanting cities of the world. Steeped in history, atmosphere and colorful character, it is truly the stuff of dreams. Palatial palazzo's flank either side of the Grand Canal, the emerald green water glistening jewel like as it winds it's way through this mystical maze. Gondolas glide along gracefully, seeming to skim the surface of the water. Fine details are everywhere in Venice, from the elaborate, vintage, red tinted street lamps, to the ornate facades of ancient buildings. It's easy to get lost in the labyrinth of this city on the water, but it's a place you don't mind going off the beaten track in, never knowing what is around the next corner is part of it's allure. To the right of the image is Santa Maria Della Salute, one of the most photographed churches of the city of Venice. I blended a little painterly texture with my original photograph to compliment this old world Venetian scene.
