PLACE: Sottomarina (Venezia), Italy
===================================
This pic was taken from Sottomarina's pier. Kitesurf sportsman like this place because its windy !
Sottomarina, near Chioggia (Venice) is a summer holiday place located 30 km south of Venice. Its beach is famous for therapeutical properties (high iodine values). Before 60's it was only a little agricultural village. Today, Sottomarina is the main place where "Radicchio Rosso di Chioggia" is produced. It's a typical sort of red salad, with a particular flavour, that grows up only in sand fields.

Picture:
This is a crop of an original pic about kite surf, shot in Sottomarina (Venezia) a very beautiful and sharp (very rare) evening in August 2004.
Added contrast and a little satured.

Bello scatto Silvio, colto con un'ottima luce. Mi piace il modo in cui il paracadute assicura all'immagine un perfetto equilibrio andandosi a collocare proprio nell'angolo in alto destra.
Bravo.

Ciao Silvio, una bella immagine!mi piae molto la persona in piccolo a sinistra!l' hai tagliata bene!
Ciao

Valeria

Ciao Silvio.
Come al solito ottima foto. Il roso sfumato dll'orrizzonte da un tocco in più.
Complimenti Renzo

This kind of compo have always a kind of poetry : colors, highness, mildness... In that case the colors of the kite are incredibly the same than the water ! Beautiful.

Silvio,
ero indeciso se premiare questa o il dettaglio dell'orologio del Capitanio... ma sulla tua bellissima città tornerò presto.
Quindi voto questo scatto essenziale, vitale e potente.
Sarà per la leggenda metropolitana del tantissimo iodio marino che c'è nell'aria a Sottomarina...
Un saluto
Renzo
