This small island near Venice is the undisputed center of excellence for glass making. It has lost many ateliers because of cheap competition and the ever increasing lack of taste on the part of the public. Yet if you want the real stuff you must get it there. These shots are from a museum about glass and glass making.
Greetings, this blog is dedicated to my life in photography and my passion for good Italian food.. I want to make this a place to stop and relax. In the hope that this will provide some respite and peace. Thank you for visiting.
