I spent most of yesterday in Venice for the Carnevale celebration. When I returned home, I noticed that I had taken over 700 photos! This is one of my favorites, so far. I hope you enjoy.

Lovely shot of the carnival scene Doug. Clear details and nice colours. Here in North Germany there is not much on during Carnival but in the south it is on in full swing. So we can look forward to some more beautiful shots.

I can easily see why this might be a favorite...it's already a favorite of mine as well...I love it, Doug...not something we see around here as a rule and the colors, clarity, and human interest aspect speaks volumes...there is some mystery as well as to the person behind the mask on the left while the man on the right shows some physical traits and emotion...excellent post.

Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have any film.

Venice has a lot to offer during those carnivals!...I have never been...but several members of my camera club often show the images taken there

This is so good..captured at the right moment..detail and composition is perfect!

I think this will fast become everyone's favorite, Doug.
Spot on clarity and composition.
A true classic.

This is what I call the right person, at the right time in the right place. Excellent reportage photo Doug. You captured the mood of the Venecian carnevale very well.
