This January 2016 image was taken on the island of Burano, a short ferry ride from Venice main island whose skyline can be seen in on the horizon. Some time ago, the fisherman started painting their houses unique and different colors, some say to be able to better find their houses after coming into port in the fog, and some say to find their houses coming home from the pub.

I was born and raised in New England and met my Canadian wife of nearly 50 years now while traveling in Europe in '73. I have mostly lived in Canada since. I have been interested in photography since 1970 and had taken multitudes of pictures in the "film" age. After a time away from photography, I jumped in again in the early years of the "digital" age. I graduated from the New York Institute of Photography in 2007. Since, I spent a couple of years as a part time professional photographer, though I am moving away from working to return to my roots in outdoor photography as a life interest. I enjoy taking landscape, moving water, and nature images - and any other passing fancy moment that deserves to last. I love quiet wild spaces...
