Venice in Black and White

July 25, 2014 Photo Essays, Travel

Is there anywhere as timelessly beautiful as Venezia?
Well, maybe all the other cities (Rome, Barcelona, Paris) I’ve posted in black and white…but, still. Venice. Sigh.

    I loved Venice when I went (on my 21st birthday!) Maybe would have loved it even more behind a black-and-white lens…..

    Stunning photos, Anne! Venice is one of my most favorite cities – not only in Italy, but in the world. How did you manage to get so many shots with no people in them? Were you up at like the butt-crack of dawn??

      Hahaha – no these were in broad daylight, I assure you! I think I just am stubborn about not having too many people in a shot, so I tend to wait it and snap at just the right moment. You’re right, it’s always so crowded! But worth it, such a beautiful place 🙂

I’m Anne! I spend part of my time traveling the world and the other part living in my soul city, San Francisco.

I have a love for all things travel. I also have a love for nesting. I do NOT believe the two have to be mutually exclusive. If you seek that balance…you’ve come to the right place.

LOOKING FOR SOMETHING?

Where Am I?

Last: We honeymooned in Greece (Santorini, Milos, Crete) and babymooned in Northern Italy (Piemonte, Lombardia, and Emilia Romagna.)

Next: ???

Now: At home in San Francisco, doubling down on nesting with our newborn baby  ♡

The Side of San Francisco Most Tourists Don’t See

“If travel is like love, it is mostly because it’s a heightened state of awareness, in which we are mindful, receptive, undimmed by familiarity and ready to be transformed. That is why the best trips, like the best love affairs, never really end.” – Pico Iyer

Not Como but…Iseo! Looking to return to the lake Not Como but…Iseo!
Looking to return to the lakes of North Italy, we considered Como, Garda, Maggiore, Orta…and in the end we chose Lake Iseo, the one least known (to me.)

It was a beautifully uncrowded atmosphere that only added to our relaxation. Aside from enjoying the lakefront hotel and restaurants, we took a day to visit Monte Isola, the island in the middle of the lake, and another to drive around the perimeter, stopping at villages nestled by the lake’s edge or up into the mountains as needed (cappuccino, gelato, aperitivo, etc.) 

If you’re looking for a smaller, calmer Italian lake experience, add this one to your list!

If you haven’t yet thought to do this outside of Tuscany, I highly recommend! It’s great to be able to see and support smaller spots and businesses that don’t get much as much tourist traffic.
