I think these are all great, and most are quite original as far as the Venice compositions I have seen go. I really like the bokeh play in 9. Congratulations.
All great shots. I feel that #7 may be an interesting shot to convert over to B&W.
Just wish that I had the chance to take even half as many shots when I was there. Combination of fog and very cold temps kept the family moving very quickly while we were there. An unhappy wife did not help very much either.
All are great! My personal favorites are 1, 9, and 10. There is just something about Those masks that really grabs me. Thanks for sharing, this has been great inspiration for me as I dust off my gear and prepare for a trip to Europe in a few months, including some parts of Italy.
Some really beautiful shots there, well done. My favorite is #2, just love the mood that it sets (as well as #5 and #6). I'm a hopeless romantic so I can definitely see where you are coming from. Hope you had a great trip!
