Another shot, from a different perspective, of a gondolier taking a couple for a ride (in 115-degree heat!) at The Venetian, Las Vegas, Nevada.

Great shot, Patricia!! I like the abstract, the sharp focus on the railing, and the blurr of the boat. Excellent.

  Thank you, Leanne and Joy! The Venetian's Italian features are a Disney-esque version of the real place, a city we didn't get to visit on our trip to Italy. But I loved the atmosphere here nonetheless. :-)

  Nice use of the wrought iron fence as a foreground.
Very pretty color in the water.
115 is a bit spicy to be out in a boat for me, though.
Nicely done.

  Thank you, Carolyn, Bill and Murry. Out of a number of these through-the-railing shots, I only got a few of them to come out decent. ... I'm going to repost this with a different crop and coloring. Appreciate your time and comments! :-)

  Thanks, Kath, Gaby, Colette, Murry, Carol, Bill and Jean!

Kath, in between the pain of my chest cold, I certainly have been smiling today.

I am surprised to have more than one finalist shot this month. Murry, I think you're right -- I hit some sort of jackpot. Maybe the Texas Tea slot machine that I kept winning at in Vegas helped me. LOL!
