Reflections of Serenity

As I wandered through the quiet streets of Venice, I stumbled upon this narrow canal
tucked between weathered buildings. My plan had been to head toward the busier
piazzas for photos, but something about this hidden spot stopped me in my tracks. The
light bounced off the walls, shimmering on the water, and I felt an irresistible pull to
capture it.

At first, I almost missed the chance. The reflection was fleeting, shifting as the light
faded, and I fumbled to position myself in the tight space of the walkway. But then, just
at the right moment, the scene aligned — two boats resting opposite each other,
perfectly balanced on either side, their symmetry mirrored in the water. I snapped the
shot before it disappeared, and it turned into one of my favorite hidden treasures from
Venice.
