Weekend Reflections


If you plan to visit Venice in winter, better
pack your Wellies.  Last time I was there it was
November and I was not prepared for the
daily aqua alta.  This bird managed to find the only
 (semi) dry spot in all of Piazza San Marco.

    You may not have been prepared for the high water, but your camera was out and ready to watch the birdie and capture this reflection. Lovely.

    Great shot! The bird adds a little something extra to it. Venice is wonderful even when flooded! I've only been twice, both times were in late November/early December. I think winter is the best time to go. I can't even imagine the heat, crowds and mosquitoes in summer.
