What an appealing shot, Sheila, with converging lines and the wonderful dynamic range. Love the colors you captured. Perhaps you’re standing on a bridge? Did you carry a tripod with you to get that 1/20 second exposure? Beautiful!
Sheila Laurens replied
Thank you very much Jan. I do carry a tripod but normally don’t get around to using it !! Lazy!! My partner tells me that I didn’t use it here – he carries it !
Yes I was crossing a bridge and just saw the shot. I’m glad that you like that XX

This is my favorite. Everything comes together in this shot, literally. Perspective, fabulous, fabulous color, contrasting textiles, and a story: the well appointed gondola, repleat with persian rug, and elegant love seat sharing a canal with someone’s laundry. Favorited!
