light and shade

 

in the window of a bar where divers meet

 

as poised as gondoliers

 

a distant view of salute from schiavoni

 

salute from an early waterbus

 

the interior of salute ... too grand to photograph adequately

 

white

 

black masks

 

even if it isn't the smartest hotel in town ...

 

... as long as the towels are comfy ...

 

... and our room has a brilliant view ...

... and the window ledge fits my bum very nicely

 

the fishmonger's balcony

 

the gate to the arsenale

there's a bar/restaurant by the gate and this is the view from the corner table

they do a lemon sorbet in the shell of a lemon with a lump of dark chocolate on the top ... but don't tell anyone i told you !

 

an early arrival in the bascino

 

vices ? in venice ?

 

the astrological clock in san marco

 

the campanile gates in the piazza san marco

you never really notice the campanile gates ...

 

'cos the campanile gates are almost always open

 

salviati

 

divieto de affissione

 

i should have been a vicar

 

isn't that venetian red ?

piety and futurism colliding painfully outside the ferrovia
