📸 Venice Carnival Magic at Dawn, taken during my @fernwayer 3 days Carnival Workshop As the city awakens, the misty blue hour casts a dreamlike glow over the gondolas and the lagoon. This stunning Carnival mask, adorned in shades of turquoise and gold, adds a touch of mystery and elegance to the timeless beauty of Venice.
