I have not posted for a period of time, as I was busy traveling and photographing! My first piece from this recent trip is “Grand Canal of Trieste at Twilight”. While visting Slovenia, I took a jaunt to Trieste to escape the persistent rains of Ljubljana. I had always wanted to visit Trieste, but had never made it despite many previous trips to Italy. Long influenced by Venice, the city’s more recent history was as a Cold War outpost surrounded on three sides by Yugoslavia, which sought to and failed to absorb it after World War II. This image reflects the city’s Venetian influence, but it seemed somehow fitting that I arrived there from the former Yugoslavia.
