@Rhys: Thank you, Rhys. As you note the challenge is to do something interesting with a gondola.
...very nice that prows.
21 Feb 2008 4:41am
@«miguel.peixeiro»: Many thanks, Miguel.
This is the best gondola shot ever. It leaves so much to the imagination, and captures the detail of the prows so well.
21 Feb 2008 6:55am
@Viewfinder: Thank you, VF. I appreciate that.
I loved to ride in a gondola when I visited Venice. What a beautiful memory, your photo, and the water turqoise colored.

interesting shot... I love gondolas... brings back good memories
21 Feb 2008 8:21am
@MJ: Thank you. They are lovely boats.
Very nice detail, maybe a tad too tightly cropped at the top.
21 Feb 2008 8:24am
@vu@granby - Wolfgang Prigge: I agree the crop is tight. What was above would not have helped the photo. Thanks for noticing, Wolfgang.
How awesome! I like your composiiton, the colors are great too!
21 Feb 2008 8:36am

A great image....those curves are wonderful aren't they!
21 Feb 2008 9:09am
@Ian Bramham: I agree. They are like the necks of swans. Thank you, Ian.
Venice is a place i've read about and seen in so many beautiful photos like this one but never went in person.This is a very romantic shot,love the pattern of the gondolas and the green water as background:)
21 Feb 2008 9:41am
@tyan: Thank you so much, Tyan.
These boats are very elegant, looks like they want to fly away :-)
21 Feb 2008 11:17am
@MadScientist: Yes, they are like swans. thank you, MS.
The black color of the gondolas provides a nice standout among the other colors. It's interesting to note the decrease in water level by the water stain on the stone wall.
21 Feb 2008 11:28am
@Steven: Good observation. It must have been low tide. Actually Venice is known for massive high tides that flood the city. Thank you, Steven.
lovely boats! i like the old walls...

A great composition. It looks like the gondolas are dancing. Beautiful colors too.
21 Feb 2008 2:17pm
@Frankie: Nice interpretation. Thank you, Frankie.
Great job with framing this Michael! The colour of the water is so wonderful and the slight glint off the tips of the gondolas is wonderful.
21 Feb 2008 3:13pm
@amy: Thank you, Amy. It's hard to get something decently interesting out of something as frequently photographed as a gondola.
Superb composition. Wonderful colours!
21 Feb 2008 4:32pm
@standley: Thank you, Standley.
They are like an elegant pair of birds on the water, although it is very difficult to look elegant when you try to get aboard :) Beautifully captured Michael.
21 Feb 2008 5:07pm

Really nice photo! I like your minimalism.
