Very distinctive and pleasing capture Sergio. Welcome to TE. It took a moment to understand what is happening here, but your note calling the image surrealistic grounded it for me. It is very crisply captured with well rendered colors. I enjoy the tight crop that creates this compositon. This is very graphical even as an artistic expression Fine work.

Wonderful catch Sergio. Very nicely composed and the crop is perfect. Almost abstract, the result is great. You have the eye, very fine job!

This is a great composition with a very appealing contrast of colours. Well done.

I like this a lot. My only small criticism is the way the top of one gondola runs into the other. Perhaps a small step right or left would have been possible?

I needed 20 seconds to decipher the scene: I saw the superb reflection from the buildings on water, but I didn't detect more to what corresponded these "razor blades" (the gondolas).

Colors are wonderful, framing perfects and composition is very aesthetic. Well Done!

Magnifique contraste entre les lignes de la proue de la gondole, très fines, aiguisées comme des lames de couteaux et le reflet du batiment preque vivant dans l'eau. En plus les couleurs sont magnifiques. Très bien vu, félicitations.

Magnifique contraste des couleurs Sergio. Je ne sais pas quel objet se reflète ainsi dans l'eau mais c'est magnifique. Nice shot.

At first I thought this was a pretty reflection only, but now I see the Gondolas - great surrealistic piece

Hi Sergio
i love this original framing, enhanced with this great light and colors..
the hardest thing in Venice, is to catch moments differents in place such as Venice..(i tried too, i posted some last year.., and i like your picture of the plazza San marco)

bye

Se me había escapado, muy buena!
Los reflejos y sobretodo en Venecia dan juego para hacer fotos de detalles que para muchos pasan desapercibidos.
Muy bien visto Sergio y gracias por tus comentarios.
Oscar

Hola Sergio.
Todo un acierto la foto.
Composición y reflejos forman un conjunto muy bueno y con unos colores que atrapan.
Una imagen diferente de Venecia, pero desde luego muy buena.

Un saludo.
