24 April
Carnival Masks

Venice, Italy

I'm not sure about this photo. I think the reflection in the window as it gives an eerie feel to these undecorated masks - but I'm not sure.

Wow! Not only beautifully composed and exposed, but the juxtaposition of the masks against the reflection of the background it spells "Venice". Voted!

This is great. The masks work very well with the reflections. Nice find.

Great effect - love the slightly ghostly appearance.

Some pretty cool mask

i think i can see glimpses of other things in the shelves beside the masks, in which case, i much prefer the reflections. and they do indeed make things more ghostly, as they kind of diffuse the masks, making them more transparent.

A wonderful capture, the reflection gives a second confirmation about the place. Perfectly done!!!

Nice shot. I like the reflection. It's like magic.

yup - works for me - quite sinister

I love it Gail! I find those masks REALLY creepy, but I love how they're reflected against the buildings, so it's obvious where they are!
