So many cool settings and beautiful models. A photographer’s dream! And again, as we did in Santorini, we clogged the streets.

Even when I was supposed to be looking forward and participating in the shooting, I couldn’t help looking all around at the cool colors of the buildings.

Yikes! Gondola crossing!

JOE_0318

The locations were incredible.

We attracted a crowd wherever we went. Some shopkeepers, though, weren’t too amused.

Even the kids around us got in on the action.

I don’t think there are any ugly parts of Venice.

Shooting went on well into the night. Good thing I brought my video light.

Although I only hit the sack a few hours before, Cathy and I just had to get up to catch the sunrise. We weren’t disappointed!

The busy Grande Canal. I’d take this over an I-95 traffic jam any day.

I played hooky one day and took a boat to Murano to check out some of their famous glass sculptures. What a great day tip.

The setting sun was spectacular as we headed back to Venice.

You meet the coolest people in Venice. We ran into Flat Stanley at San Marco one morning!

When in San Marco, the pigeons rule the roost and they’re not afraid to let you know it.

There is a distinct pecking order in Venice and the gondoliers are at the top. Even with the ribbon hanging from their hats, they’re cool and they know it.

JOE_1168

Me and Cathy took a gondola ride our last night in Venice. It was awesome! Shoulda brought a bottle of wine with us, though …

What an incredible trip! I’d recommend Venice to everyone and the Yervant workshop to every photographer. I met a lot of great people and learned a lot from them. Can’t wait for the next trip!

Lots more photos at Flickr!

I’m still reeling from the Yervant workshop as are all the others I met there since the emails are still going around! Check it out.

Not bad considering I shot video with one hand while reaching over everyone else to grab stills with the other. Ok, on with the rest of my life.
