Thank you... probably I wouldn't make this the same way today.

Simple and because of that impressive. Very nicely composed with great colors.

the colours are great. i also must add (though i say this alot), the contrast in textures really adds. the rough straight stone against the smooth rippling water.
it looks great.

Brilliant shot, the dramatic effect in the water and the red stones are just awsome...
Havent found a Deviation worth +faving in a long time, but this one deserves it!!

thank you so much. these two came up after reviewing the venice material from last january -thought the series was over but... always good to review stuff after some time different eye, different mood etc.
by the way I like your website... I guess I am about to redo all mine in black and dark grey. the more I see galleries like yours the more I want to get rid of all that white on mine.

Yeah, it's funny how going back to old work can enable you to look at it from a fresh perspective, and perhaps see something in it that you hadn't before.
Thanks for the comments on my site. My own personal preference is for darker colour schemes on sites, as I think they create a rather pleasing minimal aesthetic, and such colour schemes compliment all varities of different photographic styles, from vivd colour work, to monochrome.

you're right about the dark color scheme... I've done some thinking though and I decided to leave that to the squares website [link] and to keep the 'white' on the main website [link] -I found a way to edit the settings of the Porta generated gallery here, getting rid of those ugly contour lines and using a lighter gray as 'frame' for the pics... kinda like it also because it reminds me of the color scheme of [link] . I think I'll keep it like this for now

Cool.
It's all horses for course, I think. Generally, you can't go wrong with white, grey or black, as they're the most flattering to pictures.

what do i see...what do i see...hmmm
uhh i see nothing... which means i see everything right? hehe...well what i see here is a pianist playing a very moody melody...if i was to have that genetic disorder where all of my senses are mixed up, then i can hear the melody that's being played through the colors that are presenting...i see a passion that can't be stop and some how...i don't how but i see mona lisa smiles...
...beat me if you like but damn that was just weird!!!

It's cool to see something fresh and different taken in a place like Venice. There are so many typical shots you see over and over. It's one of those places where you could pretty much point your camera anywhere and get a beautiful shot, but most people don't take the time to look for the less obvious. Cheers!

Thank you very much. Thatβs what I tried to do in my venetian seriesβ¦ moods, details, impressions, away from the crowd βlots of tourists even on that very cold and snowy january. Now a challenge could be going back there only armed with the lensbabyβ¦ the idea is really tempting.

You were right when you said that you would shoot Venice from a different point of view from tourists'. This one is both conceptual and abstract. It seems so peaceful, I wanted to be there, seeing water during hours...
Moreover, the colors and composition are great.
I love it as much as Venice's stairs I think, even if these two shots are totally different for me :]
Good night

Thanks a lot Aurelie. This and the other one came up much later than the original venetian series βalways good to review your stuff after some time, with a different eye, perhaps different tools and attitude. I admit that recently Iβm equally attracted by monochrome and bold color -and yes with an eye to abstraction, details. Iβll see where that will bring me wonβt fight it anywayβ¦

grazie non ho piu' la 350 e neanche quell'obiettivo, adesso uso solo il formato pieno e obiettivi L. ma la 350, che ho usato per un po' l'anno scorso insieme a un paio di 20D, mi piaceva davvero molto -piu' equilibrata della 20D come esposizione.
