    Very nice shots, Merisi. Painterly. The light/pastels. (As is appropriate for your title.) xo

    Oh, these are wonderful, Merisi! They almost look like paintings.

    Are you staying in Venice a little longer? I will land there this Saturday: it would be wonderful to meet over coffee.

    I honestly thought the first photo was a pastel/watercolor at first! I like what you've done with these photos.

    Sara Lorayne,
    I simply overexposed the pictures!

    I used my 50mm lens, @ f/1.4 and at
    ISO 400 (I had just stepped out of one of the exhibition halls and forgotten to lower the ISO).

    I have been experimenting a lot with a style and look that suits me, one that goes beyond taking a technically correct picture.

    Thank you all for your wonderful and encouraging comments! I relish each and everyone, I truly do. :-)

    VP,
    I did photograph where it was allowed, at the Biennale, but I was trying hard to concentrate on a project I am working on. I will try to post images that give a more general idea of the Biennale exhibitions themselves.

    A wonderful weekend to all of you,
    Merisi
