This is typical Venetian scene, showing gondolas moored by the side of the Grand Canal, with the clock tower of St Mark's Square in the background.
The original colour version of this image was very garish, with a colour palette that was all over the place and a high contrast range cuased by the bright sun.
A conversion to monochrome helped to restore some of the Venetian ambiance to an otherwise very un-emotional composition.
