It was an early start to the day when I pulled the door of my accommodation in Venice shut at five o'clock. It was a 20-minute walk through deserted alleys and squares to arrive at this location.
This is the view of the Grand Canal, seen from the Ponte dell" Accademia. A beautiful bridge made of wood and steel. At the time of this image, the sun was slowly rising and the single cloud in the sky, was beautifully lit up in shades of pink. This reflected beautifully in the calm water, as did the stately buildings along this canal. So you can see the Basilica of Santa della Salute in the background of this image. In the foreground you can see two gondolas, for which this city is famous.
All in all, a beautiful image of Venice during sunrise, with peaceful blue and purple hues.
