Very nice shot. If you're looking for a little feedback, I would have also tried composing the shot with the fountain to one side rather than front and center, just to see if that perspective was better.

Love the shot but the clouds look over processed. Did you do some burn on them?

Thanks everyone.

Texas, I didn't do any post processing really other than cropping.

Doug, I did a shot like you were describing. Check it out here...
