Very cool fountain Larry - a fine precision piece of art - Great Capture!!!!!!

First, you photographed this beautifully, right down to the glistening water running down the sides.

Second, I love Nelson-Atkins! It is one of my all-time favorite museums. (High-5s, Larry!)

Beautiful fountain! You did really well in capturing this. Google says that this is a Noguchi Fountain. (really interesting!)

Thanks Constance! I took this shot in 2011, so my memory was murky as to details, not surprising as my old memory has a pretty short attention span in these golden years, LOL! They keep the lights low in the museum, some rooms almost dark, to protect the artwork, so a lot of the pics I took that day came out too dark. I have been honing my editing skills since then, and decided to go back and see how many of the photos from that day I can make presentable with editing, and have managed to bring some of them out of the darkness. It was a fun day, and now I am able to go back and appreciate the things I saw there that day, brings a smile to my face!

Very interesting post (your image, narrative, additional comment, and Connie's comment), Lary.
Thanks for that. Thanks to Connie too.
A very well captured masterpiece of art. Thought initially that it was covered with a glass plate, until I had read the above mentioned comments.
Very well done, my friend!

I think this turned out really well, and I find it very interesting.
