CANAL TRAFFIC
CANAL TRAFFIC
Venice, Italy
This photograph is a serene and peaceful moment in the heart of Venice. From the Rialto bridge, you have a tranquil perspective of the Grand Canal as it winds its way through the city. The black and white tones imbue the scene with a sense of stillness, while the long exposure creates soft, ghostly traces of the few boats that have passed. This image invites us to take a deep breath and appreciate the quiet majesty of Venice, a city where water and stone come together in harmonious balance. The Grand Canal is one of the most famous waterways in the world, and the Rialto Bridge, completed in 1591, was the city's first bridge to span the Grand Canal. The Grand Canal is lined with magnificent palaces and has been an important trade route for centuries. Still, at this moment captured by the lens, it is a spacious darkness, a place of stillness and reflection in a city that never indeed rests.

Designed to evoke order in the chaos
There is always stillness to be found - even within bustling environments that heave with steel and cement and artificial light. Man-made elements that are so far from the natural beauty that normally brings us peace, can still be a source of internal harmony. How? Symmetry. Lines and space and light and shadow. These elements of design speak to our inner soul. These photos showcase the connectedness of the world in a symphonic web of streets, poles and buildings – unbreakable forms coming together in unexpected unity. They help us create order within the world and within ourselves.
Science tells us about the power of aesthetic pleasure
Well-tailored suits. Shiny cars. Intricate tile mosaics. It’s an odd trait of our species but clearly humans are drawn to pleasing aesthetics. We all know that beautiful things make us feel good. A piece of art - whether a building, an outfit or photograph - has the ability to uplift our day and sooth our anxious thoughts. Studies confirm that art promotes psychological well-being and even improves focus by enhancing our ability to perceptually engage with an object. That’s why it is so beneficial to bring art into the spaces where we work, live, socialize and seek rejuvenation. The positive rush we get when we look at a beautiful image can be a powerful moment that shapes each day.
Bring beauty into your home
Scientists have confirmed that viewing scenes of beauty in art can positively impact your health and well-being almost as effectively as visiting a beautiful environment. Art allows us to enjoy our morning coffee at a temple in Kyoto and cuddle up with our pets by the stunning canals of Venice. To spend our days in the bustle of the city and return home to the tranquility of a breathtaking view. Fine art photography is more than an image - it is your calm in the chaos, an uplifting breath on a troubling day, and the stillness to embrace your most authentic emotions and nurture your best self.
