Rollei film backlog..truly the last of film from Venice

Posted on November 18, 2013

So the last batch of five rolls I sent in had what are truly my last rolls from Italy, and one random one which turned out to be beach and family pictures. And in a twist I actually ran a new roll of film through the camera. It reminded me that it does need work on speeds and possibly the focusing magnifier needs to be aligned. Also it’s harder to use now that I require reading glasses. Anyway I’m breaking up the posts of these bits of film because it is hard to connect it all. I think this picture above is one of the nicer ones I did of San Marco, though it’s a drab day.

Hello and goodbye Peggy Guggenheim Collection, Venice.

Picasso glass sculptures

Calder wire sculpture

Calder piece outside, with guy unwittingly mimicking it.

The “tail” of the sculpture

Pretty sure this is the boat dock of the museum.

All this sort of qualifies as a drab day for nice scenery. I think this is from the sole gondola ride I took.

A nice bridge, I forget which one.

Where the fancy people stay when they are in Venice

San Simeone Piccolo which you are constantly passing in Venice.

Goodbye Italy, I would come see you again any time I could

The rest of the film is completely unsorted in my drawer. So I actually have little idea what is there, my guesses are Coney Island, New Orleans, family beach pics, and random Brooklyn things.
