The Colourful Buildings of Burano, Venice

Canon 7D, 18-55mm Lens

 Walking around the Island of Burano, Venice, late afternoon. The buildings and canals were beautiful colours. I have even gone so far as looking at house prices there - what a great place it would be to live! There would be no end of photographic opportunities!

The Old Fridge

Canon 7D, 10-22mm Lens. 3 shot HDR

This abandoned building still had old wallpaper from years ago - the one with the sacking backing. All peeling. Old Floors, mess, broken toilet, old oven, it was a photographers dream! So we took advantage of it for a few hours.

Taberna

Not sure if this means Tavern or Shop. Taverna in Greek would be Tavern, but when I searched on Google this seemed to mean ‘shop’. Love the textures in the ancient building and the new birght blue door.

Ancient mosque tower inside the Chellah at Rabat in Morocco.  A fascinating place to explore with ruins of both an ancient roman city, as well as a 10th century mosque. I was there at the wrong time of the year to see the Storks, but the nests were still around.

The Old Church

Canon 7D, 18-55mm Lens

Old church at Okaramio on Highway 6 between Renwick and Havelock.  I was up at the crack of dawn in Autumn for this shot.  There was thick fog all down the valley, shrouding the church completely.  I can't find much about this church, but it was built at the turn of last century - in early 1900s and was used for church services from all around the valley.  People would come from miles away.  When church services were transferred to Havelock, it was then used as a school house for the children on farms in the vicinity.  I believe the church is still used for services, but only once a month.

This was an amazing place.  I had to sit and wait for all the tourists to disappear to be able to get the shot.  I hung around for ages until the right moment!  I think there is one person behind one of the pillars!  Lots of memories here, as this is where I fell off the donkey after I had visited here.  Stunning place to explore.
