LEANING TOWER
LEANING TOWER
Venice, Italy
The primary protagonist here is the Campanile di San Giorgio dei Greci, the leaning tower of the Church of Saint George of the Greeks. It is a historic marker asserting its continued relevance against Venice's age-old skyline.
This vision is deceptively simple - historic edifices against a serene canal, with the Campanile as an unwavering anchor. Yet, in its simplicity, a depth beckons the viewer closer. The peaceful waters, transformed into a mirror-like expanse, emphasize the striking beauty of the buildings, especially the Campanile.
As darkness gives way to light, the viewer's attention is drawn toward the Campanile, a journey that invites quiet introspection. It's a gentle whisper, urging one to traverse time, to marvel at the harmonious mingling of Venice's storied past and its vibrant present.
The image captures the essence of Venice – a city that marries the past with the present, where every corner echoes with ancient stories. It memorializes a fleeting instance, a passing boat rendered unseen by the long exposure, creating a mystique around Venice's reputation as a 'water world.'
The "Leaning Tower" in Venice offers a moment of reflection, inviting one to appreciate the city's enduring allure and harmonious symphony of time, history, and water.

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.
