Venice is a city built on water with no car traffic, so scenes like this are a dime-a-dozen, but I still never tire of seeing them. This photo depicts the quintessential Venetian gondola dressed in his typical outfit rowing his passengers out from a small canal onto the larger Grand Canal.
I love the terracotta palazzo and rooftop tiles, the arched windows and the balconies with vibrant red geraniums. I’m also a sucker for ornate details like the iron lamp dangling from a bracket on the side of the building on the left.
