Fountain Fun*

Ever fired a burst of shots, convinced you've got exactly what you wanted, then looked back on the computer and realised something's happened beyond your control to make it all worthless? This is one of those - her face is obscured by the water burst. In the next 2 frames in the burst, her face appears between the 2 bursts of water... but someone else has walked across the frame, ruining the shot!

Never mind eh?

Hard to catch a spontaneous moment perfectly, but I don't think the water obstructing the kid spoils the shot in any way at all... really well done imo.

Indeed: looks like fun: the lighting is tender and the coulours are very strong!
The subject is creative...
I really do like it...

I like this, the lit repeating sprays of water make it quite interesting, IMO. Nice color as well. Helen

I like the captured moment here and the blurred face isn't disturbing for me. Just one thought: for me the picture feels a bit imballanced, as the colors and the actions are on the left, the right feels somehow empty. Thus, I would consider to crop the right half out and making the image to portait format. This would make the water trails feel longer too. MCsaba
