I took this picture from the island San Giorgio Maggiore. From this small island you have an incredible view on the Basilica Santa Maria della Salute and the end of the Gran Canal of Venice.

In advance I figured out when the golden hour started to make sure I was in time to make this awesome shot. I used ND filters to extend the shuttertime to 30 seconds because I love the smooth water in cityscape photos.
