The culmination of a six-year project, Reflections of Venice began with a firm resolve to portray the beautiful but much painted and photographed city of Venice in a new, fresh, unique way. It is only fitting that the city should be portrayed in and through the water that she was built on and out of which she rises. David C Phillips is a much-published international photographer, writer and videographer.

Reflections of Venice was originally made for iBooks. If you have a Mac or an iPad, you can buy the iBooks version here: The PDF version is very good and includes all the videos and an audio clip. But if you have a Mac or iPad, the iBooks version is the best reader/viewer experience and I recommend you download that version from iBooks. It is slightly more expensive ($4.99) but worth the difference. If you intend to view/read this book on a tablet you should buy the EPUB version here. You can view this PDF on a Kindle device but due to the shortcomings of the Kindle platform at this time, you will not be able to view or watch the videos. Links to Vimeo have been included in the PDF so that you can go there to watch the videos when you come to them.
“It is rare to experience a new perspective on this beloved city and yet that is exactly what has been accomplished. The glorious languid images are not only beautiful but also fascinating. There are abstract reflections that mirror the ingenious porphyry walls of the Basilica San Marco, and all of a sudden the marble incrustations make perfect sense! David has used the multi-media benefits of this platform wisely, offering video, audio, and an interactive glossary, none of which would be possible in a printed book. REFLECTIONS OF VENICE brings a remarkable awareness to this enchanting city ‘in’ the water. Bravo David!” – JoAnn Locktov, Author, Publisher, Founder of Bella Figura Publications
