The negative space looks like a woman's chin and neck. Lovely skin tones, but only a dream, made from flowing water. A very sensual, almost erotic image. The vase is also a symbol for a woman. When our mind is on love, we can't escape the call of the senses. If I were a broken-hearted lover I would want to wash my face in the gathered water of this fountain.

Very nice composition, Zahid. Good light and capture of the water. Helen

Very nice...it has a historical, Greco-Roman artistic quality about it...just real enough to look like a photograph, yet just abstract enough to look timeless and artistic.

Gaurav, I am lucky to see the up dates today and thus saw your message also. Thanks for the encouragement.

I must say - this is my favorite amongst your entries - i love your off center composition, the secondary fountain that draws the eye in and the gentle cascade of falling water. Two thumbs up! ~gk
