I like this idea: "almost as if time had stopped running in this place except for the fountain" Chris

I like the backlight and its effect on the water. Very artistic shot.

Oh Emily, this is simply amazing! I love the outline of the light, the detail of the spray and mist! Amazing!

I agree, the lighting does make it look otherworldly; almost as if time had stopped running in this place except for the fountain - the fountain seems to be slightly tilting to the right and the hills in the background reinforce this by also sloping down to the right - I don't think that's such a big deal, something that just caught my eye after viewing for a while. Still, great work, the mist and the colour pallet work great together with this subject.

@Chris: hee i did realise the slant too... when i was editing it, i tried to use the "ground/horizon" as a guide but it bring round didnt help. i should hv used the fountain axis pendicular to the edge instead.
thanks for your thoughtful comment! hmm "the forgotten fountain" sound like the title of the scene u described =)
