Hi Jeremy,
Awesome pix! The composure is amazing. Just curious, do you use any filters, and if so, which ones? What camera? I'm especially curious about the pix where the lights sources come out as stars.

It's been 20 or so years since I visited Venice, but now I want to go there again!

Mesmerised!
Hi, your photos are simply gorgeous! We especially like the contrast of San Marco Basilica during the day and at dusk - truly mesmerising! Your shots of Venice remind us of our wonderful trip there last December. Thanks for sharing and keep travelling!
