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!

Sienna was beautiful, even when it was raining. Old, cobblestoned alleyways, cathedrals, museums, town squares, amazing chocoalte cakes, hot chocolates - just a magic place.

A Venetian Canal

Canon 7D, 10-22m Lens

Beautiful canal in early morning.  The more I look at this the more things I see - the beautiful colour of the water, the rubbish bag on the door, the washing hanging out, the numbers on the wall, the overhead wires, the beautiful green trees and the reflections of the boat.  I loved Venice, beautiful city and loved the alleyways and canals.

Primary Colours in Burano, Venice

Canon 7D, 10-22mm Lens

Apparently the council in Burano controls the colour of the houses. I think they're doing a great job as there is such contrast and brightness. I love bright colours and I'm sure it affects the mood of the residents - they were so friendly and cheerful.

Main Street, Venice

Canon 7D, 10-22mm Lens

Main street in Venice, taken from the Rialto Bridge.  Early morning light, and the colour of the buildings reflected in the water.  Not too busy in October but plenty of activity on the water.  Had to pinch myself as I had seen this view thousands of times in photographs, films, movies, advertisements, but couldn't believe I was actually seeing it for real myself, right there with my own eyes!

This was taken by putting the camera on the ground, with the lens propped up with a spare battery. I didn't have my tripod so the ground kept it steady instead. Gives a good perspective.
