In my mid-20s, I traveled through the fantastic country of Italy for an entire month … by myself! It was an amazing trip and unforgettable experience. During my journey, I visited the legendary city of Venice and some of the outer islands. Torcello is a short boat ride away and where I photographed various bridges and monuments - with one in particular that resonated with me. It was a simple stone bridge without railings and had a sharp arch over a small patch of water. The cables in this pattern represent the water with each base of the bridge on either side.
