Oasis In A Busy City



I thought that it would make a change to enter a Watery Wednesday post instead of my usual Wordless Wednesday.
There is seldom a shortage of water in England and we don't have to go far without coming across it in some form or another.
Although I am allowed to write on this post, unlike Wordless Wednesday, I'm not sure what else to say! Isn't it always the way?



Footnote: My son, Sam is also joining in with this theme today. Why not pay him a visit?

    The water-spouts look like joyful little white ghosts traveling along with the people!

    I was thinking much like Rinkly. They seem to be sharing that space. Great shot.

    I love the way the person on the right appears to be talking to the fountain!

    Hey, that's a fantastic shot, Maggie - like the way the water is frozen and the low angle. Very well thought out - watch out David!

    Wow! That is just beautiful! What an excellent picture. What kind of camera do you have? I just bought a new one and should get it today. I hope it takes great pictures like this one! (Although I am sure the picture taker has a lot do with it!)

    What a great capture of the dancing water! I've spent my share of time having fun doing the same. I think they're fun shots.

    Dancing, frolicking water. What better picture to have on a midweek day? And words too, Maggie, that's good. I never liked Wordless Wednesdays that much. I missed your talking. xox

    Excellent shot!
    The water droplets caught still half way through.

    I don't think they have turned the park fountain on yet here in Neenah. It is still to cold.
    Loved your picture.

    Wow Maggie that is a great shot! And what a wonderful concept. Did you just think of it yourself and do the logo? Or is there a "Watery Wednesday" meme going round?

    Cath, there's a Watery Wednesday meme going around :)

    Wonderful photo, gives the impression of water dancing on the air :)

    Happy Wednesday,

    I was expecting a "wordless" Wednesday, Maggie May, but I like this effect! I could never do a Wordless Wednesday--I just can't keep from talking:)

    I'll be back when I have a few more minutes to read your story from Monday.
