Photographer’s Note
Still morning, the street still quiet, the masquarades not shown up yet, probably still sleeping - preparing for the balls.
taken during venice carnival

Hello Cessy. This is an excellent black and white composition. The man and his wheeler make for a nice subject to fill an otherwise void in the middle. Good lines of the architecture and details well seen. Thanks Cessy.

Hello Cessy,
Je trouve que tu as trouvé une vue très atypique et très inhabituelle de cette ville de Venise ! Ce noir et blanc rend cette scène hors-d'age et l'absence de touristes donne un impression de solitude assez rare à Venise !
Bien vu.

Bellissima foto di Venezia, hai catturato un momento di lavoro qualunque, ma lo hai arricchito da questo bellissmo bianco e nero. Buon colpo d'occhio!!

Bonjour
une très belle vue, en plus originale de Venise. J'aime beaucoup la perspective de cette rue, la lumière qui permet au personnage de bien se détacher et la conversion n&b.

Hi Cessy. It does appear very peaceful right then and I assume it gets a lot busier than that. I like the amount of contrast you have in the b/w conversion. The bendy leading line does a great job of taking our eyes through the picture. tfs Cessy.

The B&W conferes a good mood and enhances the feeling of calmness. That single person walking in front of the camera, leading around the curve is a great compositional element. A diferent view of this hype city.

Hello Cessy
An inusual picture of the Venice carnival! This street in B&W gives an impression of peace and quiet.
It is 6 am, Venice did not wake up yet.
Regards.

Hi cessy
A nice daily life scene from Venice, with superb lighting & texture on the fg cobblestone / flagstone street. The addition of the man adds a human element. Good sharpness in this superb b&w. Tfs!

Oh, Cessy, I like the silence that can be heard in this image. It is not an exceptional scene photography wise, but I recognize myself fully in it, in the sense it is the kind of photograph I would have taken myself. Very frequently. A kind of shy and discrete view on loneliness that can be seen around each corner of any city, any horizon line above the ocean, any path into a deep forest. That man is me, and it seems the photographer is me also. Hence, I'd say this is not a photograph, but a mirror.

An excellent composition with this curved street and the man going up the street at a very quiet time in the early morning. Black and white works very well here, a very good choice.

Hi Cessy,
I like the curvy perspective well animated by the action going on, a scene that shows normal life catches up when the tourist carnival is sleeping or... having breakfast @ 09:04 !
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves
