fountains


Fountains

My iTunes: Ma Qual Mai S'Offre, O Dei from Don Giovanni

I've always thought fountains are fun. Photographing fountains at night is kind if like photographing fire works. There isn't much light, other than that produced by your subject, but there is movement that you want to capture. I like fountains especially for the lines, though -- even though nothing is stable, engineers can determine based on water pressure and directional vectors exactly where each stream of water will go, and then they arrange multiple nozzles accordingly to make some sort of display like this one from New York City.
