Night study

I love experimenting with night photography. Catching the mood of an evening, the darkness bringing its very own feel to the environment. This photo was taken in Venice, after a long rainy day. And what stood out for me was the stillness, an almost total absence of sound and movement.

More of the Gran Canal glittering in the evening sun. I'm quite fascinated by this effect. In this photo selection old meets new and we are back to the present day reality of Venice. Gondola as a pass-time getting in the way of modern traffick.

I felt both pictures while capturing a similar moment are quite different in their atmosphere and I could not quite make up my mind which one to chose. So I thought I share both. What do you think? Any preferences?
