About	San Giorgio Maggiore is a basilica in Venice, Italy designed by Andrea Palladio and located on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore. The first St George’s church dates back to the 8-9th century. In 982 the whole island was donated to a Benedictine monk, who founded the adjacent monastery. The present church was begun in 1566, and was not entirely finished before the death of Palladio in 1580. The façade was continued by Vincenzo Scamozzi based on the original architect's designs and completed in 1610. I captured this scene before sunrise and the weather was on my side ;-) By the way, you can visit the church and there is an elevator to the top of the bell tower….. and you can overloock the entire lagoon of Venice ;-) Enjoy it.

Absolutely gorgeous!! I checked out some of the pictures on your blog, and OMG, please don't even look at my portfolio...OK!? To say you are talented and creative, just seems a bit trivial! I'm totally impressed with what I've seen and think now that I should never take another photograph again...LOL..ok, ok, ok...maybe a couple. BRAVO to you!! And I'm not EVEN going to tell you what I like about this photo because you already know!! Best Regards, Linda :) :)
