Venice carnival is the favorite event of Captain Obvious. Everything is already been photographed. My quest to stand out? I tried to make classic photos even MORE CLASSIC. That's how you defeat obviousness, by being SUPER OBVIOUS.

OH yeah BLACK AND WHITE
so shiny so good
Let the figures stand out from the background in a super-classic 1/3rd composition. I will leave air overhead for a good dreamy look.
But let me first line them up with the wall in the background. YEAH!
