I got some of my best photos in Venice (which you can see on Photo.Wire) – unfortunately this was partially restricted due to the hoards of tourists who were around every corner. Of course some of the best places are to be found when you’re lost and in Venice you’re likely to do this a lot!

Santa Maria della Salute

Piazza San Marco

Canal Grande

Burano

Notes on Venice: During the summer its busy, very busy, so be warned if you don’t like that – of course there is plenty to see away from the main attractions. Take a map or buy one when you get there, you’ll need it! Get a 24 hour pass for the vaporetto (water bus) and you’ll save yourself a lot. Try the pizza at Arca, Calle San Pantalon, Dorsoduro – it’s rather good!
