Pictures of Venice, Veneto and Italy
The thing that struck me when I first visited Venice so many years ago as a young girl was just how vibrant everything was.
I walked out of the station and laid eyes on the Grand Canal. The sparkling light, bright colors of the boats, and translucent blue of the water were something I never expected.
In most photos, Venice looked grey and dull—in winter, it can be—but on a bright summer day, it most certainly isn't, and I was determined to find photos that captured that.
Only a few of my photos were good enough. I have to boast a little here and say that I am getting much better than I was in the beginning. My husband, though, disagrees and reckons it is just the camera that is better. Hmmm!
Veneto is not only Venice, though. The photos of Verona, and those of the other areas of the Veneto, clearly show just how enchanting this magical region is.
In fact, we have photos from all over Italy, and every tiny corner has something of exceptional beauty to offer. If you aren't in Italy right now, I promise these photos will start you dreaming Italian dreams.
