The Petitioners

With the costumed Rose sisters in the foreground, I concocted a story that they had been to petition the Doge of Venice to take mercy on an incarcerated prisoner dear to them. Having failed to secure a release, they were now waiting nearby, so their beloved imprisoned could take one last view of them, before crossing the famous Bridge of Sighs in the background; that bridge forms a passage used to take the condemned from the Doge's Palace, to the Doge's prison.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
