The spry looks great against the dark background. Well captured and presented Ami.

This is the kind of image that I love. It pushes toward the abstract and shows so well the beauty lurking all around us every day - the mundane isn't boring if you really SEE.

The sepia effect is well used here. I particularly like the subtle remnants of other colors in the background.

The light in the water spray, the perfect oval of "impact" beneath the spray, and the completely different texture in the zigging-zagging reflection in the foreground really entertain the eye.

Lovely.

I agree with everything Leslie said. My thoughts exactly. The dual effect of lighting, color and placement of the fountain add a captivating abstract effect. Saved!

The thumbnail reminded me of a Bird in Flight.
Thanks for sharing.

I really like how the water seems to be floating in the air Ami. A well composed beauty.

For some reason, this has a ghostly appearance to it, partly due to the frame, and also because of the way the picnic shelter looks. Pretty cool stuff, Ami.

Lots to like in this one... I'm a color and light junkie so I'll say my favorite element is the clearly articulated spray from the fountain.

The water action of the fountain stands out well with the great lighting and dark background. Very well captured, Ami. Good post.
