Freeze

Posted by Dimitrios (ATHENS, Greece) on 31 January 2007 in Cityscape & Urban and Portfolio.

A fountain near my home with a diameter of 10 cm was bubbling about creating nice shapes. 12 shots later this appeared on my camera, enjoy it. The only thing I did is to rotate this picture 90 degrees so you see it on your monitor on one page.

With the time approaching let’s celebrate the coming of the new year.
Post one image on December 25th with a Xmas wish.
Post a second image on January the 1st 2010 and include a smile with yourself in this picture!
Get your mind working on this idea am3, tell your friends about it.
See you there, all the best, Dimitrios from Athens Greece.

That's really nice. Beautiful shot. Isn't that at least half the secret to good photography? Never take One shot when you can take 12. I'd rather you posted it right way up anyway, but well done.

Colour blind from Tokyo, Japan

Great effect. I was wondering what the hell this was for a second. It's a good idea to put it sideways to make people really have a look at the picture.

Lyndsey Le from Houston, TX, United States

Wow! First thing that came to my mind was ... how in the world did you do that? Then I read your description. But I'm still curious about that one bubble (lower left) in the air? :) This is a really nice capture, D!

I like this shot. Too bad you had to rotate it to fit it on screen. I like the quality of the water, it doesn't look like the water does in similar shots.

@Henry: many thanks Henry
