A simple image today.
In three of the last four months I have set new records for recorded visitors to the blog. This is very gratifying. I won’t have Venice or Salamanca to offer every month but I do think the Fuji X-T1 and its light weight and high quality glass has reinvigorated my photography. Thank you very much for your company.
All my images are published under a creative commons license. If you so wish you can download them and if you ask me nicely I may send you a higher resolution version if you wish to print one or two. I am being presumptuous but you never know.
All downhill from here 
And here I’ve been afraid to ask what one might cost. What would one cost? The next difficulty would be in making a selection!
If you have a particular favourite and you don’t mind printing it yourself or having it printed locally I can send you a high res file. Most of these on the blog are under 200kb. High res can be 10s of MBs. I don’t include a watermark so you have a nice clean print. I can’t help you choose I’m afraid 😥
Ok, Andrew,
I’ve looked through and found my favorite: img_2285.jpg
Inside the cloister. I particularly like the very things you were faulting, the touch of purple in the recesses and the blue near the front. I think it is perfect. How does this work? My email address is: melissabluefineart@yahoo.com
This one I appreciate with heartfelt experience, Andrew. I’ve been here, I loved St. Mark’s Square, and seeing this wonderful picture brought back many memories. Thank you.
It is one of the great places in the world, Marylin. I’m glad it brought back good memories.
The low viewing angle appeals to me. We have just watched the old Zeffirelli film of Otello, so the Lion of Venice is rather appropriate.
Tutta la magia di Piazza San Marco in questo tuo bellissimo scatto!!
Ciao, buona serata. Pat
Yes, it is a wonderful place without the people!
Congratulations! And it’s very generous of you to make these available on Creative Commons, they are wonderful pictures.
Thanks Denise. They are low res so people cant do much with them.
I tend to get a bump of visitors in the summer months for a strange reason and I have not worked out why.
I like the simplicity of the image as the scene speaks for itself.
Thanks Ben. The bump has lasted a while now but there is no obvious reason. The geographic distribution is similar, just more individuals and regular visits. Its hard work keeping the momentum though.
Awe, you play so nice with others and even share! 😆😀
You’ve got a great eye and always post great captures. It’s no wonder you’re getting great traffic!

Thank you MWPG. Do unto others is always a sound approach to life except when driving.
Simply beautiful image! I really like this.
Thanks Caroline. Venice is already tempting me again but the bank manager says no
Wonderful shot. And when we were there, I didn’t even notice that the lion wasn’t !!!!
