La Donna Misteriosa/The Mysterious Woman (Weekend Street/Reflections # 5)


 Venice, Italy

She suddenly appeared out of nowhere and then vanished into the darkness. I had to be quick to get the shot. 

Now you can link reflections and/or street photography. 

Please no posed pictures, portraits, animals etc. unless of course there is a reflection.

Night photos always have a sense of mystery about them. Wonderfully done especially since you only had a moment to get it right.

It's easy to become a ghost in such a city.. but not easy to catch them before they vanish!

You did well, I hope she was safe walking in the dark.

James, maybe you scared her away? We went out to watch Granddaughter cross the dark street with a neighbor girl to her house and there was a car parked in front of our neighbors with someone sitting in it. Strange. Soon the car door opened and a lady dashed out and up to the neighbor's front door. We didn't see her again. No camera with us.
