Wow! What a great pciture! A queen considering herself as she surveys her domain. There are several stories that could be written about that picture. What do you think it says?

Secondly, shame about the cranes that spoil the skyline.
Thirdly – what must it have been like in Venice in its heyday?

I know I am a big boy now but I still find some of the Carnival Masks rather scary. Great image…. love the close crop 🙂

Beautiful shot.
