Description
In the bustling, old town of Venice, incessant circulating of footsteps, sweat and motorboats resonate throughout the city regulating its daily moments. Apart from its main attractions and spectacular views, many small alleys and hidden corners do provide exquisitely peaceful and rare encounters to the curious eye, such as this gondolier leaning over a small canal, with its still waters reflecting ancient buildings magnified in their glory.

What a wonderful image, the reflections seem to be what the gondolier is feeling as well. Nicely done.

Great shot Julia! This Rio has been on my to do list for a long time (watercolor that is). So is the gondolier looking enviously down at the motor boat and seriously contemplating upgrading from his old gondola for the motor boat? :-)
Julia Hiebaum replied:
Thank you for your gracious posting Richard, that could very well be a plausible thought!

Another spectacular capture, Julia! Love the buildings reflected on the calm water. The boatman adds a personal touch, completing the story. L&F

Excellent composition, nice to see something different from Venice! Good job getting the boatman to wear a shirt that matches the colour of the buildings ;-) vf
