The Isola San Giorgio Maggiore has always intrigued me. It is definitely one of the iconic sights to see in Venice. The island has been occupied since 829 and the church, with its bell tower, was built in 1566. This was taken one morning as the sun began to rise over the beautiful historic city!!
I continue to be busy trying to lend support to a Presidential candidate here in the USA and getting ready for a new trip to India. Southern India will be my destination this time. I miss my daily contact with every one, but probably won't be back on schedule until sometime in March! I continue to appreciate your support and encouragement!!!
For me, it's all too easy to feel uneasy just about anywhere. But, after looking at all of the beauty of Venice, I felt a little overwhelmed thinking about all of the people who lived elsewhere in dire circumstances. Sometimes, it's even possible to have contempt for too much beauty.

The blue hour in the morning on the Grand Canal is a quiet and special time. The throngs of visitors are still sleeping and the gondolas look like they are too.
Before I left on this trip, I got a new little camera and had to replace my ancient computer, so I am learning what new things each of them can do. Good for the mind and to see the possibilities. I like vignettes so used that tool in editing.

The 1983 edition of the Carnival of Venice, one of the very first of modern times as it was reintroduced only in 1979.
Everybody loves Venice when it's sunny and warm, but when it's cold and blustery in the City on the Lagoon, the crowds disappear and a special beauty emerges.
People say the best thing to do in Venice is to get lost. That's exactly what happened to me and I managed to stumble across many beautiful canals. The one pictured above was one of my favourites. Lighting created by the setting sun, coupled with a picturesque bridge and moored boats perfectly conveys the romantic nature of Venice at night.
