Canals and Bridges of Venice

There are 409 bridges in Venice of which the Ponte de Rialto is the most famous.  These bridges span 177 canals (can you see that I am mathematician?) with the Grand Canal at three kilometers long being the major thoroughfare.  I spent much of my time taking photos as the colour and variety of the canals and bridges, and the absence of automotive traffic, provided wonderful shots at every turn.  And don’t forget the luminosity – dappled sunlight reflecting off the water.
