Venice - classic views
There must be thousands of thousands of photographs of Venice in print and online, but on visiting Venice I found that few photographers caught what I saw. Of those with a similar perspective, some took almost identical shots as myself, although not quite, we all have our differences in style. I enjoyed sharing their work, so have here published a part of my own portfolio on Venice to share. Yes, there are thousands more.
To begin, I have on this page posted a selection of classic views, or rather, my view on classic Venetian landmarks. But then, there seems to be a stunning view around every corner in Venice. And we all have our own lasting impressions. And there are so many views and details which I saw but did not even try to capture with the camera. I stopped and admired, took time, and simply appreciated Venice.
