Carnevale Venezia, 2007

My first Carnival. It is surprising how much of a spectator sport it is: those in costumes, pose. Those who are not, take pictures.



My favorite costume is this one. Not because I like Klimt all that much, but because I like the homunculus trapped in the costume, whose eyes peer out from the triangle in the middle of her breast.



Here's a close up of his wizened face. It appears as if he's rather sad in there, but the truth is that he's probably having a whale of a time.
