Fountain of Rings

05Aug2015
Being in Georgia in the middle of summer, Hotlanta lived up to its hot and humid reputation. One way to cool off is the fountain in Centennial Olympic Park. I shot the traditional photos of the fountain show and close up water shots, but decided a better view would be from the top of the nearby Westin hotel. I took the elevator up to the top and shot with a long telephoto compressing the view, and giving a unique aerial perspective. On this July afternoon the water is a powerful attraction, and the people and water at a distance appear almost like tiny figures in a miniature scene.
