Brunch with Battutah
Rialto Bridge
Posted by Michael Skorulski (Cigel, Slovakia) on 4 January 2009 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.
The famous Rialto Bridge on Venice's Grand Canal. The bridge has been lined with shops for centuries. This is where I purchased a handmade mask to commemorate my visit.

Wonderful perspective and composition. The last time I stood here, I was so hot that I ran in to the Benetton shop and purchased some over priced shorts! Ha ha
A superb shot, Michael

Hi Michael - your work is spectacular!
This is a very well composed photo and all of your work seems to make amazing posters or large prints for walls - great work!

The bridge is amazing in the details you've captured, including the angel on its face, and the people add reference to the scale.
Thank you for taking us along 'with you' to a place I'll never see through my own eyes.

@Judy: A pleasure. Thanks for the great comment, Judy.
