In winter, Venice shows what is probably its genuine face. With most of the noisy crowd of tourist reduced to just a handful of true Venice's lovers, the beauties of the Serenissima are more readily appreciated. No noise, no waiting, lower prices, slower paces.

For photographers, there are a few more advantages.
In winter days the sun seems never to rise, rather it remains quite low above the horizon line and somewhat its light is scattered in the sky, as if it was shining through a window of polished glass or alabaster, and the shadows are as long as church aisles.
Sunrises last for ages, and so do sunsets.
There are only eight hours of daylight in winter in Venice, but every minute carries with it infinite opportunities for a trained eye.
