loading of a boat

During my morning walk in the fog along the canal of San Marco, I saw

this man loading colored parcels in a boat. I found that it was a

pretty image in that greyness and I took this shot (and three other).

Perhaps could have I take a closer shot of the parcels but I would

have been too near of the man and this is something I do not dare.

That is why I prefer landscape photo. Landscapes don't say "go away!".

Henri, I also have shots of this boat! (or one very like it - crossing the laguna!) I know what you mean about getting too close to get a photo. I am not happy about uploading shots of recognisable people unless I have their permission. Good misty atmosphere!

Nice mood!

These candy like colors work well in the soft light.

One of my favorites in this presentation. The fog works perfectly to harmonise the plastic (kitch) colours of the bags. I also like the way the buildings disappear in the horizon, and, of course, the excellent mouvement of the boat-worker. Bravo!
