“Photography is the art of frozen time… the ability to stre emotion and feelings within a frame.”

“Everyone wants to go to Venice, and who can blame them? A fairytale lagoon on which 118 islands float – linked by 400 bridges, covered in jaw-dropping palazzos and crammed with earth-shattering art whichever way you turn, this really is a place like no other. It’s also a place where all the stereotypes are true – to an extent. Yes, it’s spectacular – and yes, it’s just like the photos. But thanks to mass tourism, it’s also overcrowded and in precarious health.
Yet that’s not the whole story. Even in the busiest areas, step just one or two blocks away from the fray and you’ll find empty streets and local voices. Spend more time here – five days is a decent starter – and you’ll see that the real beauty of Venice isn’t in its blockbuster sights, like Piazza San Marco or the Rialto Bridge; it’s in the quieter spaces, where life goes on as it has done for centuries. And once you glimpse that life, you’ll want to protect it.”

Venice….
Away from the crowded places there are many charming streets waiting to explore in this floating city. Especially during nighttime when the city is sleeping or in the early mornig hours there is this magical atmosphere which we love as photographers. Beside this, there is always something going on. At the start of carnival there is this wonderful water show full of colors, dance, music and special effects… a great opportunity to take pictures….
