I really enjoyed my trip to Venice :) Even though it's been years these photos bring back the feeling of winter there, the cool, the low sun and crisp air. It was nice :)

This spooky season I thought it would be fun to share some black and white pictures from my trip to Whitby. Whitby Abbey is a beautiful ruin! I loved the architecture and had so much fun taking photos there! :)
