18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
Venice Reflections

Among water reflections and minimal people in Venice Italy due to Covid, one can see the reflections of themselves. How did I get here, I often wondered, and am I lucky, or is this experience going to ruin having to return to the US. The stories given in Italy reflect a different view on the States, and I believe it changed the way I thought even of myself. When you can look into water and see culture, (lucky to see the Venice water clearer) and then see people love the life they have, you crave seeing it everywhere. To the floating houses that reflect culture and remind me of the different worlds out there, I will be back, but it will be different.
