Venice is composed of more than a hundred tiny islets, packed closely together around canals.
A bragozzo is a Venetian fishing boat, traditionally built in Chioggia, the most important town on the Venetian lagoon after Venice. It stands at the southern tip of the lagoon, a two-hour ride by boat from Venice. It is the main fishing port on the lagoon. This city is connected to the sea by an inlet or "bocca di porto" of the port of Chioggia. Chioggia’s position has encouraged, in the past, the processing of salt and fishing activities.

Fortune has allowed me to come full circle and return to my earlier interest in photography. I am at that age were some weight loss would be beneficial. I certainly don't believe all photographers need to starve, but my initial goals are realistic, if not humble. The industry has changed tremendously, but the possibilities are unlimited. I am grateful that my parents' gave me a generic name. It's allowed me to explore numerous paths unhindered.
