Does colour rule in Venice?

Photography as Art Work the photographer believes might command artistic value beyond their own circle. As usual in OPF, these submissions merit critique based on intent, context and purpose. This might cover technique, composition and the like. To go out in the world, however, far more might be expected, even for things of beauty or great craft. Art criticism is harder. It requires knowledge of the arts, literature, history and esthetics. Criticism comes from study of the photograph and related works. It's an assessment of how this work might stand our culture. As Dante warned: "Abandon hope all ye who enter here!

Does colour rule in Venice?

Here's an early evening shot taken in March from the foot of the Rialto bridge, which I believe shows how the right light can add that "special something" to an image's colour. If it were taken an hour earlier it just wouldn't have worked.

EOS20D+EF-S 17-85mm, f6.3, 1/400sec at ISO 400

Feel free to comment or critique.
