Think of photographing by themes
by ChrsStrl
There is so much to do, so much to see, so much to photograph, that sometimes you end up with a collection of photos that are no different from the usual tourist post cards. Try to look for some comment elements - here are a few we saw - there are many more! Let us start with doors:
Walking In Venice
by al_mary
Each time we visit Venice, we
like to take a day and just walk
along the side streets ....
We find it interesting, especially
when you get into the residential
areas ....
We have found nice little local's
places to eat ....
~ Farewell To Venice ~
by Carnation
The day was rapidly coming to an end and soon it was time to say our goodbyes and head off for home again. We slowly made our way back to the station to catch our respective trains. With heavy hearts we said our goodbyes, boarded our trains and headed out for home taking along with us some wonderful memories of our day together.
Ciao bella!
by CliffClaven
Perhaps the sexy picture of Italian film star Ornella Muti will make the guys out there read on to learn a bit about the etymology of a popular Italian word. Bet you didn't know you spoke Venetian! The internationally popular greeting "ciao" in fact comes from an 18th-century Venetian phrase, "sono vostro schiavo" (I am your servant). As it spread through Italy, the phrase was variously corrupted and shortened until it became today's universal synonym for "goodbye".

If there is any chance of rain, bring an umbrella. Since the umbrella will be turned, twisted and possibly blown away, bring either two or three cheap ones or a good one. I bought the Jack Wolfskin umbrella for hiking, which doesn't mind getting turned or twisted.This is not just good for Venice in rain, of course, but also for any outdoor activity in autumn in Germany.
