City Theme - Venice

September 2nd, 2015
@brigette and I have both recently posted photos from our trips to Venice. We thought it would be fun to host a theme based on the cities of the world.We are kicking off with Venice.

The theme will run from 2 September until 9 September. Post as many photos as you like from Venice and use the tag City-Venice. Brigette and I will choose our favourite images for you to vote on and the winner will get to choose the next city we visit.

Go through those archives and choose your favourite Venice images. Have you just returned from visiting this amazing city? Post your photos. We can't wait to see them.

What a fun idea, I'll have to dig through my old stuff from 30 years ago!
September 2nd, 2015
Really fun idea, but like @catwhiskers I went digging into my past, and boy, did those photos need some color correction!

Fun idea to shut me out ;-) Never been to Venice. Good starting point for a world tour though. It's probably the first city that will disappear...
September 2nd, 2015
Sounds like fun!

This is a shot from 9 years ago. Me and my family took the ferry to greece from the habour of venice and i had the chance to shot some parts of the city. Wasn't that much into photography then, with sweet 16 years old. :D

2012 - re-edited today to correct the cooked horizon and wrong exposure! :)

Thanks Nicole for this theme. I have had a rather nostalgic journey through my Venice album taken during our World Cruise in 2010. Where have the last 5 years gone? I will upload a few more favourites in the coming days.
September 5th, 2015
@ltodd - love this, I have a similar shot :)

@ubobohobo - you are welcome, I look forward to seeing your images

Aaahhhh Venice memorie - 2003

September 7th, 2015
I have had such fun looking back at my old Venice shots - in 2012 I was disappointed with this shot - the DOF, the haze & the soft light the colours look really, really bland - ff to 2015 - "why not make it B&W" I think to myself (is that a "well derrrr!! " I hear from @graemestevens and @northy???!! ;-D) and hey presto it looks heaps better!! Because we had hired a small boat to cruise the harbour for a few days, we escaped the thousands of tourists - and we are here eating fantastic seafood pizza at the foreshore cafe with only a handful of locals and the gulls!
