Mary L. Olson November 17, 2010
Thank you so much, Irene. I shot this in downtown St. Louis in a new area called CityGarden. These fountains are so much fun! They dance and change colors constantly. I have tried shooting them several times, with mixed results, and when I got my hands on a fisheye lens, I decided that could be the way to go.Best,
Mary Lou #9044838
