    Default Magic Water

    I have posted other images from Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square Pa. (right on the Del. border.) If you are in the area (before you go see Discus Hans in Balt.) these gardens are worth a family/photo visit.
    They have just spent multiple millions on restoring the water fountains and on certain nights there is an amazing display to music. Some nights this is accompanied by fireworks (sold out this year). It really is a must see if you are anywhere near the area.
    These were all taken on a tripod at 1-1/8 of sec. with either a 70-200 or 17-35mm lens.
    Last two, same image, a little different processing.

    Thanks Matt. It's like shooting fireworks. The whole place is just beautiful.
    I probably should have included a daylight photo. (The gardens themselves go on for acres, ~1000.)

    Reminds me of the fountains at the Bellagio in Vegas without the gardens part.
