What Type of Camera and/or Lenses Did You Use?
Fujifilm FinePix Z20td
What Was the Weather Like? What Was the Lighting Like?
It was a sunny day, outdoors, with no flash. The weather was gorgeous in Venice that day as I was on the gondola. For some reason, Venice has the most perfect pockets of light as you go in between the different buildings, probably because light is reflected off the water.
