The Getaway

Olga K.

  • This photo was produced 2 years ago, before the start of the Covid-19 outbreak. Taken in the streets of Venice, Italy, it portrays a peaceful and stunning image of what is hidden away from tourists traps and main plazas. While I was there, I fell in love with the color schemes, architecture, and the alley ways. It was a getaway, sitting on the small bridge which overlooked the small canal and admiring the perfection of how the buildings were reflected in the water. I took the time to capture this moment and to keep it to look back at. To me, something about it brings me great peace and silence, and even if it looks like the image is perfect, what is inside, is absolutely not. All of these components make the photo come together, the crooked pipes and windows, crumbling historic bricks, and the unsymmetrical shaped buildings. This is truly one of my personal favorite works.

  • Creativity means an aspect of life which can not be produced at a general level, or perceived to a substantial amount of people. It is something that needs to come from the soul and heart. It also demonstrates the person's way of changing what they have been offered in life into what they love.
