Lion of Saint Mark

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

Another lion in Venice. This one i located just outside the Doge’s Palace, on the Piazzetta San Marco. I got up early one day, chugged a lot of coffee, and trekked down to the Piazza San Marco to take shoot some photos as the sun rose. I got several good pictures out of it, might post some more later.

This is a picture I took in Venice this fall. Since Venice’s patron is St. Mark the Evangelist the city is virtually littered in statues of lions. This was an ageing stone lion protruding from a wall. As I walked past I had to take a few shots, and I’m pleased with the result.
