Venice Moments

Venice is the definition of creativity. Built on water, this slightly wonky city is full of photographs ready to happen. There are art galleries, gondolas and of course, the Grand Canal. Built on one hundred small islands in the Adriatic Sea, there are no roads – you enter this interesting world of water buses and speed-boat-taxis…

I spent four days in Venice when travelling through Italy. Whilst Venice can be expensive, we found that renting a house in a residential area made the experience very affordable, and allowed us to see the reality. Most of our time was spent visiting art galleries, riding the water buses and walking down alleys. We did also make trips to other islands such as Burano (as you will have seen here on Instagram) and Murano which is famous for glass making.

Venice is ephemeral. Everywhere you look, there is a new moment about to unfold and last only a split second. As a photographer this was definitely something that I wanted to capture – I’ve always been excited by capturing moments! It’s truly beautiful.
