hello, i'm not sure if you want to know this, but while this is an interesting shot, street photography is actually meant to showcase 'life,' and not just life, but life in the ever changing street of the world. so this shot, while aesthetically pleasing, sadly does not qualify. as such, i believe it would be better placed in another category. for example, Photography > Urban & Rural, or Photojournalism > Places, or Photography > Miscellaneous, perhaps? in any case, i hope you take this information in the manner it was intended, thank you.

It's very lovely, I like how you turned it upside down. And the mood of the photo is awesome, it's vivid and sunny

Maybe you can get there some day... Many people visit Venice sooner or later, and Chioggia is really not far away from Venice, and really worth a look.

it was a really cool idea to flip a photo with such a dominant reflection in it upside-down. it definitely messed with my brain for a few seconds.

wow! this is very nice. the eye sees that there is something amis so I look longer at it. It's busy but not in a way to make me turn away, it's busy in a way that makes me look longer. finally I realize that it's "upside down" from expecte! great job!

Thank you. Chioggia inspired me very much and was a thrilling surprise for me. The light/mood/atmosphere was exactly how you see it in the photos, I didn't change it.
