Detail of the Salute

Salute_detail_border

Place: The Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute, Venice, Italy.
Date: Tuesday, October 30, 2006.
Camera: Sony Cybershot DSC-W1.

This vast octagonal building, the largest church in Venice, is a distinguished landmark on the Venetian skyline. This photograph was taken late afternoon, just as the colours of the light grey Istrian stone were changing to warm gold -- and later pink -- as the sun set lower and lower in the sky.

Ooo...nice. Would dearly love to see that for myself!
