Probably the most unappreciated fountain in Louisville, Kentucky. It sits in the middle of the city in a municipal park located on the waterfront that virtually no one frequents. I'm surprised I remembered it was there as I actually thought of shooting a much better known fountain. The pool and fountain are also much bigger. This is just as much as a wide angle lens could cover.

Very pleased with the results so far, but equally surprised it is as of this moment my highest scoring image.
