2021-02-02 THE MYSTERIOUS MASK
During a nighttime stroll through Venice, parties’ chaos poured out of one of the hotel windows. On closer inspection, it was a masked ball with mysterious masks. That would be a sound basis for a Venice movie thriller with dark alleys, facades, and conspiracies.

2020-12-30 SUNSET IN VENICE
My wife Karin and I were waiting for the water bus from Lido Venice to St. Mark’s Square. I used the waiting time for photoshoots. The sinking sun that disappears behind the Adriatic was one of the motifs that found its way into my portfolio.

2020-12-21 PIAZZA SAN MARCO AT 11 PM
My last visit to Venice was in January 2019. At a late hour, the photo shows St. Mark’s Square only sparsely visited. I wonder how it is there now. Anyway, I’m optimistic and plan a trip in autumn 2021. Venice will shine in its old strength.

2020-07-09 WATERBUS AT LIDO DI VENEZIA
This public transport is only available in Venice. My wife and I had a 3-day ticket and could use all the water buses. Here at the Venice Lido, we were able to catch one of the last boats because we still had the 20-minute drive to St. Mark’s Square across the bay. Otherwise, there would have been little chance of reaching our hotel.

2020-05-20 THE CARNIVAL
I expected hundreds of showmen to walk around the streets in full makeup in my imagination about the Venice Carnival. In reality, I could hardly find people who matched my meaning. I was already satisfied with my photos of the opening of the carnival. Then I could see this couple in full splendor the day after. I did not miss this opportunity and was able to come up also with classic photos.

2020-05-17 LIBRARY IN VENICE
I cannot remember in which library I was, but I can remember that I was on a walking tour which lasted for hours. And I came home with thousands of photos. I am looking forward to revisiting Venice; the borders should open soon. For me, it’s only a five-hour drive with the car from Vienna.

2020-05-07 CHILD AND PIGEONS
Pigeons in Venice, the classic of my childhood memories. All the more, I was thrilled when I was able to take a picture of this child who is just scaring the pigeons and having a lot of fun with it.

2020-04-29 BETTER TIMES IN VENICE
The photo below was from my last visit to Venice. I would never have imagined that we can get in such a situation. I am hoping for better times and adding some photos from Venice to my portfolio. I think Italy is in the stage of opening step by step at the beginning of May.

2020-04-14 ASIAN MUSIC PLAYER IN VENICE
My wife Karin and I were on the way to the canal, where the Carnival opening would start. On a plaza, we saw that music player with this exotic musical instrument, which looked like a zither. She had a band-aid on her fingers because of the metal strings. Here music was in perfect harmony with the vibe of the city and its buildings.

2020-01-03 THE CANALS OF VENICE
I am often surprised at the overall picture that the canals and buildings in Venice create. A mixture of art galleries and impressionist painting. I added the photo to my favorite collection.
