These photos were shot on Fuji Superia 100 on a Lomo Kompakt Automat made by Lomo Optics of St. Petersburg. I find Fuji film gives the most vibrant colors, and using a slow daylight film like the 100 means longer exposures, deeper contrasts and tonal values, and some amazing nighttime effects.

Captions are included where necessary. This is Set 2 of 3.

I never noticed the pigeon in this picture until after it was developed. The background is St. Mark's Basilica.

When I look at this shot two things always stand out: the perfect profile of the pigeon's wings, and the florals on the girl's jeans.

One of my personal favorites.

Venice is famous for its yearly Carnival, a masquerade that dates back to the 14th century and takes place every February in San Marco's Square. Carnival masks are sold everywhere.

No one notices at first but the two people in the shadows at the right of the frame make this image special.

The shadow is the accidental subject of this shot.

Lots of energy in this one. The red and yellow are a great constrast to the old stone. I also like the expression and posture of the old geezer at centre frame.

In a quiet piazza somewhere deep in the city we saw these handmade hanging mobiles providing illumination for people eating in the restaurant courtyard.

After-work drinks.

The sign reads 'Restaurant of the Madonna'. I'm partial to this picture because of the way the light from the sign washes over the right hand wall.

At first I was disappointed this image was out of focus, but the more I look at it the more I appreciate the energy in it. A perfectly still evening in a quiet canal is made interesting by virtue of the indistinction.
