The Grand Canal

The candy cane poles lined the small jetties of the Grand Canal. The austere façades with Juliet balconies stood stoically as a lone gondola slipped through the water.

One of the best images I have seen of the Grand Canal. Well done!

Beautifully created. I love how your composition carries my eye down the canal to the domes of Santa Maria della Salute. Did you shoot this from the Accademia Bridge?

Correct. Two rows by six shots pano for max resolution.

It's great to see a location that has become such a cliché, done so well.
