Weekly Photo Challenge: H2O ( Fountains )

This week’s photo challenge is H2O.

I like photographing water in its different forms and states.dscf0270

Photographing fountains is my favorite too.

The first one is a picture taken in the peace memorial park in Hiroshima.

I have adopted a slow shutter speed and a shallow depth of field.

At the bottom of the fountain, the water came bubbling up.dscf1165

The second photo was taken in Geneva, Switzerland.

I must admit my main focus was on the trees and the shadows although the fountain is an indispensable part of the photo.

 

Weekly Photo Challenge: H2O ( is Fun For Children )

See this fountain.Water flowing and spraying.
Children playing in it, screaming and laughing.
Splashing and dipping, feet wading. 11037316_1054738214543318_7666546475893478235_n
Cheerful laughter can always be heard.
The fountain is a magical place for everyone to enjoy.
It is the place where we rediscover the simple moments when we are free.

Rundale palace (1)

This is a view through the palace window.

You don’t see it when you are down at the palace garden as you are on the same level.

You can only appreciate the beauty of the overall garden from a higher altitude.DSC_0233

It looks like the Versailles garden, doesn’t it?

While appreciating the treasures inside the palace, I found one window which was opened to this great view.

Please enjoy 🙂
