Thanks to all of you for the comments. The photo belongs to one Kodachrome fine-grain film, which I should have chosen more often - but in those days money was short.

Also a great reminder how Venice port used to look; all major buildings on this photo have since disappeared...

Thanks for sharing!

Cheers
