Italy With San Giorgio Maggiore Island View
From this spot, you have a great view of gondolas and San Giorgio Maggiore Island with the church steeple in the background.
You want to be about 2-3 meters from the water so that you can get the lampost into the frame.

Photography Tips
Arrive early in the morning to catch the sunrise. There are crowds during the day and evening, but the area is less crowded in the morning, and you can often see photographers shooting at this location. If you arrive about 30 minutes before sunrise, the lights will still be on.
I would shoot this on a Tripod at f11, ISO 100 with a 15-35 mm lens. I would also use a 6- or 10-stop ND filter to show the movement of the gondolas and smooth out the water.
