High water in St. Mark's Square

St. Mark's Square (Piazza San Marco) filled with water during a high tide of around 110cm - that's the height above an average lagoon water-level, not the depth of the flood. Take care if you're walking through the piazza in wellies as it's not level and the water varies in depth. On the day I took this photograph I saw seagulls bobbing - but also a floating dead rat.
