Split Second Story

Who can get the closest without a soaking?  In the summer this fountain is full of happy kids but only the bravest are willing to face the random spray pattern in early spring.

      Yes, it sure does! I’ts great to see the smiles break out and all those little legs run for the water. 🙂

        ha! but I like your point about the spray being extra cold in the spring – it is kind of like the ocean right now – only the die hards actually go in…. 🙂

      Thanks, Yvette. 🙂 I took the photo with Hipstamatic on my iPhone, then edited with Perfect Photo Suite before posting. I like the soft touches and rich colors from the combination and it’s great to hear you like the edits too. 🙂

    I like the wet pattern on the ground. If you get close enough, there no where you can go without being a target.

      You’re right about that! There really wasn’t a safe place to be, unless the end goal was to get wet. 🙂

    Great capture, Lisa. Love the bravado of the guy in the green shirt. I think he was trying to impress the girls. 🙂
