Back From Italy: Part 2

For the first 2 posts from Italy have a nautical theme.  Venice and the Chinque Terre are very connected to the sea.  Photographing in Vernazza was difficult because of the time of day we were there.  I normally prefer to shoot in the hour leading up to sunrise to 2 hours after sunrise.  We were here mid day and the sun was hot and harsh.  I struggled to find light that would make for a good image.  I liked this shot because I was able to get up high on the seawall and shoot down on these boats.  This allowed me to get a much better angle to bring attention to the bright paints on the tops and angular dock.
