I love this image, both from a creative point and a storytelling point. It speaks to summer and the joy of being free to enjoy a simple pleasure in a very clear simple & yet focused manner.
The contrast of the detail between the shooting water and the flowing water is well captured, and the angle of the legs indicates a looseness and relaxation which translates to that simple pleasure. Perhaps I appreciate this more as a city-bred QA, because I know and have participated in this scene many times. 8•)
P.S. You might think about entering it in the current "Urban Life" contest
P.P.S. For other viewers - stunning @ full size. The only way to view it.
All of earth is crammed with heaven And every bush aflame with God But only those who see take off their shoes. - Elizabeth Barrett Browning<p>

Hey there Mister Madman, wat'cha know that I don't know
Tell me some crazy stories, let me know who runs this show
Glassy-eyed and laughing, he turns and walks away
Tell me what made you that way
It's an odd thing, but I can feel the heat from this one, and yet it cools ya too. And I agree, the relaxed stance is super!
Very nice work here Steven! Verena
