We went on a dream vacation earlier this year and drove from Frankfurt, Germany to Northern Italy and then on to Salzburg, Austria and Prague, Chech Republic. Here are my favorite shots from Venice.
Venice has 177 waterways and canals that stretch over 26 miles snaking their way throughout the city separating neighbors and neighborhoods. The canals split the city into 118 different islands.
There are over 400 bridges in Venice.

Dave, your photos are fantastic from the colors to the detail. I have been to Italy a couple of times but never took the time to get to Venice. Was over there on business and spent most of my time around Milan. This was in the late 70s and early 80s. I kick myself every time I see photos like yours but very few of them come up to your category. I thank you for sharing your time there.
