Chasing the Sun




The scene during the summer in Venice, Italy is a mixture of awe, romance, magic and chaotic tourism. It's greatest beauty is most often found when lost in the tiny alleys leading over tiny canals to nowhere. But, there is still the ever present majesty of the Grand Canal, envisioned here from the iconic Rialto Bridge, a nexus for eating, buying, people watching and gondola riding.

This doesn't even look real!

So true about the tiny alleys in Venice. And, a fashion parade as one can see real Italian laundry strung across the narrow canals. But, the real flash is the Grand Canal as you have captured it.
