For the longest time I dreamed of a wild adventure in Italy. In April 2008 that dream became an comical reality when I accidentally fell into the Grand Canal in Venice! Yes .. I slipped and fell into the Grand Canal wearing my best woolen coat, David Jones skirt and new boots. (See journal entry) So here is the photo taken a few moments before I fell. Next time I think I will just buy a postcard lol ! Venice is the city of love and even in the rain, this silent trio look oh so romantic. (c)sooz2008 (c) sooz2008
Morning mist over Canal Grande, Venice, Italy. Photo taken from the vaporetto. Arriving in Venice in the early morning in Autumn gives the advantage of seing the town rise from the mist, as a mirage come true

These gondolas were bobbing away in the early morning. Although it was incredibly expensive, and the ride was very short, it was definitely a must for Venice.
Looking down the Grand Canal from the top of the Rialto Bridge in Venice, Italy. Water traffic is chaotic here with Gondolas, Water Taxis, Vaporettos, Ferries, Speedboats and even Rowboats trying to make headway in the crowded canal. Moored watercraft line the banks. The buildings lining the canal are a fascinating mix of styles. Single RAW image Tonemapped in Photomatix Pro 3.2.

A gondola glides gracefully along the Grand Canal in Venice, Italy disturbing only slightly the stillness of the morning with a few ripples permiating from the hull.
Scanned from a little Canon Ixus pre digital camera, with a panorama capacity.

Reflections and sun lighting the green water of the canal under the bridges was so gorgeous. Just waited for a gondola to pass by. I promised myself this time I would take a gondola ride and I did but the gondolier kept laughing at me about all the pics I was taking, said I should invest in a video camera instead lol

Colourful Gondolas full of tourists, Vaporettos full of commuters, cruise ships and pleasure boats of all kinds can be seen navigating the wide Giudecca Canal in Venice, Italy. In the background is the Church of San Giorgio Maggiore, designed by Andrea Palladio and located on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore. Facing the Bacino di San Marco, the church plays a central role in the panorama from the Piazzetta. (Information supplied by Wikipedia). Single RAW image Tonemapped in Photomatix Pro 3.2.
