The ability to capture a mystical scene, a particular hue, a fleeting moment through the camera lens is a skill I yearn to have and when I find someone who has been able to do exactly that, it’s only fair I spread the word. If you enjoy this beautiful take on Venice, you will find Anya’s Blog pure pleasure to visit…enjoy!

Did I tell you just how much I love Venice? The lighting, the atmosphere. Taxis, barges, ferries and Gondolas jostling for right of way in congested canals as they deliver produce and people. The majesty of slowly sinking, villas, their soft patna crumbling with decay. So much to share, Instead enjoy a few of my favorite images:
Venice has long been on my travel agenda, same for my traveling companions Jenny and Ross and thus we found ourselves toting luggage from the carparks to the water bus to find our way to our Venetian accommodation…this part of our European journey alone worthy of great reward for managing with elegant aplomb…a very stiff G&T, but I digress…
Imagine our relief when we stepped off our water bus on the Grand Canal, right at the door step of our latest digs…the beautiful Palazzo Giovanelli. An historic building, dating from the 1500s, painted with mythological figures by Zelotti, rich in charm and with a history that includes tenants such as the Mozart family and the King of Denmark, Frederick Christian IV and…us!
Yet again Jenny had excelled in her selection of interesting places to lay our weary heads. What’s more, Rossie had discreetly upgraded their suite to the presidential as a treat for her birthday and it is this suite you are viewing here…
As promised, another of our fabulous Chateau, Maison, Villa finds this in one of Italy’s most beautiful cities…
