Vacation shots... reference material for future paintings

Lately it seems I've been painting flowers exclusively. Inspired by a recent vacation, and ready to try my hand at a cityscape or still life again, I went rummaging through some recent snapshots in search of inspiration. These two stills of Venice caught my eye and fancy. Have decided to use them as reference material for my next paintings. Plan to document my progress in stages and post on my blog.
