Church of San Rocco

I took this picture of Chiesa San Rocco in Venice back in 2005. I took this as it was getting toward sunset, and people had started to gather for dinner, socializing, etc. The church is on the right, and the accompanying Scuola Grande di San Rocco (Saint Rocco's School) have a courtyard in front of them, and it's a popular gathering place. The scuola is known for its large collection of paintings by Tintoretto.

Another picture tomorrow...

HI Jim,

Greetings from Manila. Stumbled upon your photo blog. Nice pictures of interesting places. I have been to Kyoto too but that was years and years ago.

Guess, I need to get started on a photo blog too as my wife and I have travelled around too.

Cheers,
Gil
