The most monochromatic landscape in the world that I experienced in Venice, Italy | MONOMAD Challenge
In this #monomad challenge I bring you a landscape that didn't need to be edited to monochrome, haha, it was black and white. It is Venice submerged in the middle of a dense fog. Actually the colors were barely distinguishable, the view was no more than 70 meters away and everything seemed to stop in time.
I remembered a part of the movie “The Others”, starring Nicole Kidman, where at one point she herself is lost in a totally dense fog in her town.
I was in an unfamiliar city trying to cross from the island of Venice to Giudecca. It was past 9:00 pm and I didn't know which Vaporetto (boat-bus) to take to get back to the island where one of Venice's Generator, the hostel where I was staying, is located.

El paisaje más monocromático del mundo que experimenté en Venecia, Italia | MONOMAD Challenge
En este #monomad challenge les acerco un paisaje que no necesitaba ser editado a monocromático, jaja, era blanco y negro. Se trata de Venecia sumergida en medio de una densa niebla. Realmente los colores apenas alcanzaban a distinguirse, la visión no superaba los 70 metros de distancia y todo había parecido detenerse en el tiempo.
Recordé una parte de la película “Los Otros”, protagonizada por Nicole Kidman, en donde en un momento ella misma se pierde en una niebla totalmente densa en su pueblo.
Yo estaba en una ciudad desconocida intentando cruzar de la isla de Venecia a Giudecca. Eran las 9:00 pm pasadas y no sabía qué Vaporetto (barco-bus) tomar para regresar a la isla en donde está uno de los Generator de Venecia, el hostel donde me estaba alojando.
For the first time in my life I felt afraid traveling, because it was cold, the city had already closed almost all its doors and I did not know where to go or what to do.
On the street there were very few people walking, who were disappearing as they advanced in the fog.
Unintentionally I passed by St. Mark's Square, which had become a gloomy scene where a thriller of yesteryear could have been filmed as a short film without the need for many more resources.
Por primera vez en mi vida sentí miedo viajando, pues hacía frío, la ciudad ya había cerrado casi todas sus puertas y yo no sabía a dónde ir ni como hacer.
Por la calle había muy pocas personas andando, que iban desapareciendo conforme avanzaban en medio de la niebla.
Sin querer pasé por la Plaza de San Marcos, que se había convertido en una escena tétrica en donde tranquilamente se podría haber filmado un thriller de antaño a modo cortometraje sin necesidad de muchos más recursos.
Later I found out that seeing Venice in this fog is normal, but for me, it was a unique experience, since the other time I had been in such fog, it was in the south of Mendoza, the province where I am from, and it was daytime, and I was driving my car. I mean, nothing compared to this.
Más tarde me enteré de que ver a Venecia en medio de esta niebla es normal, pero para mi, fue una experiencia única, ya que la otra vez que había estado en medio de tanta niebla, fue en el sur de Mendoza, la provincia de la que soy oriunda, y era de día, y yo iba conduciendo mi coche. Es decir, nada comparado con esto.
Likewise, once I arrived at my hostel, I felt extremely happy to have experienced that, because it was literally a very particular monochromatic landscape. And as you know that I relate everything to my energetic planes, I felt that that fog represented my lack of mental clarity at this moment, but then the road itself made it clear to me that the fog is leaving and the ground and the sky are clear to continue moving forward.
I felt that the fog also somehow cleansed me. Things that happen to you, hehe.
Igualmente una vez que llegué a mi hostel, me sentí sumamente feliz de haber vivido aquello, pues literalmente era un paisaje monocromático muy particular. Y como saben que todo lo relaciono con mis planos energéticos, sentí que aquella niebla representó mi falta de claridad mental en este momento, pero después el mismo camino me dejó claro que la niebla se va y el suelo y el cielo se despejan apara seguir avanzando.
Sentí que aquella niebla, además, de alguna manera, me limpió. Cosas que le pasan a una, jeje.

Thank you!
Thanks a lot!
What an intense film that is, isn't it? Fog can be challenging and even more so when you are in a place you don't know. I think the seagull wanted to give you a message of clarity.
Of course you felt happy. You lived your own movie.
Lol! Absolutely, it was like a movie!
Thanks for stopping by!
Yo soy fan de Nicole Kidman. 😄

Fantastic shots!
Thank you!!
I can hardly tell which part of the road is because of the thick fog that covers the road, but you collected some amazing portraits today my friend.
Thanks a lot! To be honest I agree! They are good shots. It was not only me but also the landscape itself!
Thank you!
