[QUOTE="Blue439, post: 823724, member: 53455"] My wife and I have always been in love with Venice. Not only the traditional tourist sites but the genuine Venice, the everyday Venice, the one Venitians live in and which the tourists, regardless how many of them there are, never get to see. We went to stay several times a year, and at one point we even thought about buying a place there. And when your heart and mind resonate like that with Venice and you’re a keen practitioner of photography, it is inevitable that you become interested in the Carnival, at least to some degree. Now, there are many ugly, commercial, cheap and over-touristed aspects to Venice’s Carnival of the 2000s, but there are also very authentic ones. It takes time to insert yourself into the small crowd of the genuine [I]costumés,[/I] but once you get to know them and you know where and when to go, you can take one or two nice and authentic photographs, far from the Piazza San Marco...
