I have been waiting for almost 6 months to photograph this fountain at night. It is located across the street from the main Ohio University Library and greets all who exit through the lower entrance. The name refers to stone dragons which surround the base of the fountain, but which are not visible in this shot. Hope you like!

Stunning shot, you've really captured the contrast between the smooooooth water and rough fountain.

The fountain, light, curtains of water, you caught this just right. Beautiful.

But.....Strangers have the best candy.
The comments above are spot on. It would be an interesting comparison to look at photoimagery's onion shot recently - it shares these beautiful lush textures and sepia tones.

we are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking up at the stars
What a beautiful capture from a unique perspective. I love this photo! Gorgious tones and lighting. Agree with Alexis. It was worth the wait. Thank you for this lovely desktop image. ;)

I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for.

Greg, it is a FABULOUS shot. It is a photographer's photograph. Everything about it is just perfect! Wonderful idea, and flawlessly executed!

Ah, the old 'benefit those who exit through an entrance' ploy. I really enjoy nightime photography, did a lot of it when I still used my camera ... you know, the cheesy stuff, zooming while exposing the shot, ferris wheels moving ... in other words CRAP.
I really like this. Maybe have your significant other sit there, a little fill flash, put it on your mantle. Thanks for sharing

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.
