Italy – Venice – Rio de S. Pantalon

Venice_IV_5723-Gerry_PacherI really love strolling around the smale alleyway in Venice and get inspired by the colors, structure, buildings, shapes, excellent Italian food ... and .... dolce far niente (the sweetness of doing nothing).

Enjoy the Rio de S. Pantalon view.

Italy – Venice – Burano – Watercolors #1

Burano_P8_6483-Gerry_PacherBurano, the most colorful place on earth. Maybe it's a little bit to optimistic but this place is amazing. So, if you are in Venice, take a Vaporetti and go to the nearby island Burano. This time I was lucky having a blue-foggy sky that worked like a giant softbox. Enjoy the watercolors.

Venice – Rialto Pescaria – Fish Market

I visited Venice late November 2009 in the hope to have some fog in the laguna and to have the opportunity to make some foggy night scenes. Well, there was no fog at all but a lot of rain - all day long. 
This is the unique old fish market with its old plastic curtains.

Do you like Orange?

Orange is a visually dominant power color, due to its association with the sun and the color of flame. It combines the energy of red and the happiness of yellow without being as aggressive as red.

The color Orange energizes people and may stimulate enthusiasm and creativity.... and maybe it energizes you?

I wish you an energized day ;-)
