Another night in Venice
Not being a night bird, I however like to have a night stroll in the empty streets and over the bridges where the echo of my footsteps and the lapping of the water are the only sounds to be heard.
I have been to Venice twice and perhaps the most enjoyable experience has been wandering the back streets and canals, places with no tourists (except me and my wife). Yet how much more elegant at night.
Toujours de très belles photos ! Je reviens d'une semaine à Venise, que du soleil, un ciel bleu et pur, pas d'acqua alta, pas de neige : le rêve!!!!Buon natale, a presto !
I will always remember how incredibly tranquil and beautiful Venice is at night. It is such a contrast to the busyness of the daylight hours. Your picture captures it beautifully.

San Giacomo dell'Orio on the left, in case you were wondering. Pierre was either in a boat or on Ponte del Savio.
Venice is so magical and mysterious at night. I would love to wander around by myself but would, in all probability, get lost pretty quickly.
Venice is magical place. Great pictures and regards from Venice hotels
Sooo quiet! Amazing!!!
Thank you

The echo of my footsteps was a memory I will always treasure.
thank you for bringing us along on this solitary walk, and for engaging several of our senses.

it looks very chilly! Maybe I am projecting since the only time I was there was Dec 96 and there was a Siberian cold front!
lovely shot!

Beautiful, Pierre! Not too many things (if any) more magical than Venice late at night. So, you're not a night owl? You could have fooled me!
If you like those things, then you are are night bird.
Lovely photo, as ever.
Have a good Christmas! Keep posting pics!
Magic place :)
Amazing photography! Lovely!
