Burano Boats, a photo from Venice, Veneto

Photographer's Note

Burano is a pretty island in the northern part of the Venetian lagoon. Famous for its lace-making and its brightly-coloured fishermen's houses, the town of Burano covers the island, with several small canals acting as thoroughfares. There are a couple of larger squares, and many little lanes and alleys. The town's fishing industry can be glimpsed along the canalsides and around the island's shores, where there are tiny fishing harbours.

This image very typical of the island of Burano, with the brightly coloured houses and the moored boats painted in equally resplendant colour.

Hi May!
A lovely close-up full of color. I like the distorsions very much, they are even nicer than reality!

Cheers,
Juan

Hello May,
The picture certainly shows how colourful Burano is and you looked for a wonderful colour palette with the houses, the boats and their reflections in the canal.
Best regards, Paul

Bonsoir May,
Les couleurs sont fantastiques. Il y a peut-être un petit manque de netteté, mais la composition est très jolie.
