As a way of looking back on 2009 and originally inspired by Gwen Bell’s post here ) this post is the best trip of 2009. Gwen Bell suggested writing a series of blog posts on the best of 2009 and gave a few subjects to write on throughout December.
Now December, being December passed far too quickly and I never quite managed do this so have to decided to continue on regardless .
Definitely the best trip I took in 2009 was with a friend of mine Rhiannon Connelly to Venice, a simply amazing and inspiring city . The reason was to simply to take photographs. Having just acquired my brand new D700 at the time made it was a great opportunity to test out the new camera and its high iso capabilities. It did not disappoint … here’s a shot taken at night where it was basically pitch black apart from the highlights. The camera managed to record more than I could actually see . This was shot obviously without flash at 5000 iso , f2.8 handheld and its a pretty decent image considering. Definitely sold on the new camera !

I took a variety of images but here are two that sum up the visit to Venice
