Venice 2nd upload



Torment 
Inside one of the many lovely churches, unfortunately i meant to take with me Miss Garnet's Angel so i could go on a hunt BAH!! forgot it, but did get my nose stuck into Kafka on the Shore - class book!!

Pls enlarge! Only people seemed to take rides were Japanese, i was certainly not going to pay £150 for the pleasure!

Another rainy shot! the colours however were dazzling in every square

Apparently this was a love shop, very odd choice of clothing for the dummies and some with nothing at all but i found the poses very un-erotic

2nd day of fine weather , out at night touring the many lovely alleys

saw many of these, i bought one from a street vendor haggled from 5 euro and purchased for 3,, it lasted all of 3 hours.

Pls enlarge pic! Very early morning walk on my own through the streets of venice to catch a beautiful sunrise. Started off at 6am where it was dark and lots of flooding in places especially St Marks square which was a total covering of water (shots of this to follow). Venice is a very nice safe city and although the tiny alleyways leading to squares looked forbidding it is and hopefully always will be a very safe place


Bottom of the Rialto from San Marco side, very yummy slice of pizza purchased from side street - just off

Brollies, plastic leg coverings and these capes doing great business

Pretty!

View from the Accedemia Bridge


Peaceful pockets of still-ness and beauty

Venice first upload

£200 for a 4 star hotel in San Marco and flights , how could i possibly refuse!!




4 days rain - venice flooding rain, sun and warmth, more rain and sun on the day we left.

Puffa dog coat!! new shiny puffa coats owners and pets match

Ambling through Rialto market, saw so many old ladies out and about these 2 didnt have the shopping trolley that are in favour with the old and not so old 
It would be difficult not to shoot pretty scenes
