DUSK ON THE GRAND CANAL
Venice is notorious for being tricky to navigate and it took a fair while for me and my wife to find our hotel and we were slightly concerned of going out later and getting lost in the dark (no Google maps back then).
BACKSTORY
DUSK ON THE GRAND CANAL
Venice is notorious for being tricky to navigate and it took a fair while for me and my wife to find our hotel and we were slightly concerned of going out later and getting lost in the dark (no Google maps back then).
After firmly locating our hotel in relationship to St Marks Square and Rialto Bridge we felt happier of not being lost in the back streets for an eternity.
This was one of two images that I captured one evening from the Rialto Bridge.It was my favourite time to shoot at what I call the edge of darkness.
A magical 10 minutes when its neither day or night but a slice of time in-between with the last breath of sun reflected in the sky and the artificial light of the city glows warmly.
I noticed the Gondolier gracefully steering his Gondola towards its mooring for the evening and kept shooting.

PRODUCT DETAILS
What you are hanging on your wall
Printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308gsm — the same archival paper used by leading photography museums and galleries worldwide. Not standard photo paper. A soft-textured, cotton-based surface that absorbs pigment ink at a depth that makes colours appear from within the print rather than sitting on top of it.
Each print carries my authenticated digital signature, is numbered as part of a strictly limited edition, and includes a Certificate of Authenticity. Once the edition is complete, that image is permanently retired. No reprints. No exceptions.
Shipping “Delivered free to UK, Europe, and USA. Worldwide delivery available — shipping contribution applies to some distant destinations, calculated at checkout.”
Photography by Simon Plant. Published by National Geographic and TIME Magazine. 37 years photographing the Mediterranean.

What’s The Difference Between A Canvas And A Limited Edition Print?
The canvas prints are open edition — produced on artist-grade cotton canvas with archival pigment inks.
There is no limit on how many can be made. The limited edition prints are on Hahnemühle Photo Rag paper — a heavy cotton paper used in museum collections — with a strict edition cap.
When the edition sells out, the image is permanently retired. Both use the same photographs. The difference is the material, the edition limit, and what that means for long-term ownership.
