Windows in Venice, Italy

One of my favorite photos.
These were some of the great balconies and windows that we saw in Venice, Italy. I love the textures, colors, and shapes.



You can just feel the "lived in" nature of these pictures. Personality explodes from them. So beautiful.

Such a beautiful post!
I'd love to be looking out of each and every one of those windows! And I'd love to sneak a peek into each one!
The photographs are wonderful!
Enjoy!

I spent hours strolling Venice by foot and boats looking up at those charming windows. Infact, either it is my first post or in my first months of post that I posted a window with a little old "Mama" looking out of her window that reminded me of my own lovely grandmother. I have enjoyed all your photos from Spain too!

Thank you for sharing these lovely images! I've never been to Venice, but it's on my "short list!"
