Yes, places like Venice or New York or London or .... have been photographed millions of times. That does not mean that no interesting pictures are possible! The challenge is to find that new/unusual/personal image that conveys the soul of the place. I am in Amsterdam almost every week; I walk on the same streets every time, the pictoresque canals etc. Sometimes I take no photos, other times I shoot a whole roll in a half hour walk. Every time I see something new in the familiar scenes. There is a good reason why Venice has been photographed by a ton of people: it is a beautiful city and the picture possibilities are endless.
