Beautiful Venice (Weekend Reflections # 128)

Venice, Italy

I've been away on a trip all week. Unfortunately, it's business not pleasure, but I'm leaving you with a photo from my last pleasure trip. I hope you enjoy it. I should be back tomorrow.

Please only link posts that have picture/s of reflections.

    L'eglise sur la droite de la photo est celle d'où sort Indiana Jones dans "la dernière croisade"!!!:o)
    J'esspère que le voyage d'affaires s'est bien passé et que tu pourras te reposer un peu après ton retour. Bonne fin de semaine!

    Venice is somewhere I've always wanted to go.
    Lovely shot on what looks like a beautiful day!

    James, Venice is probably my second favorite city (after Paris, bien sûr) and this is a beautiful reflection with the stillness of the morning hours. Great shot and a wonderful display of the varied architecture.

    bon weekend,
    Genie

    Great shot James. The blue sky reflected in the water is more real than the real thing.

    I love the contrast of the sunny and shady sides of the canal
    and the rippled reflections are so so pretty

    The still waters of the Venice smaller canals are perfect for reflection shots. Wonderful, James.

    Beautiful canal scene in stunning light! Interesting how the buildings on the left seem "crinkled" in reflection while, in the same water, the shapes on the right seem defined and still!
