Took this last night at Buckingham Fountain in Chicago. How did I do? What could I do to make it better?

Very vivid colors, almost too much in case of the lights at the base of the fountain. By the way, I am blown away by some of the pictures on your site..outstanding images.

Great colors, love the shot. Not sure if it is my monitor but the shot looks slightly angled.

Thanks Ranesy!

And thanks Vitacura! Are you thinking it's slightly angled to the right? Like the left side of the fountain is a little higher than the right?
