[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is closeup of water jet in the middle of Lake Geneva, the same as in a couple of earlier posts. You probably won't believe me but I did not touch the sturation level, just adjusted contract and highlights and shadows. I caught this rainbow effect from the sun shining though the jet at the right angle.

Wow! Supberb. Looks like one of those strange deep-space photos from hubble.

I was in Geneva two-years ago, but the fountain was off for some reason. Oh well!

Wonderful image.

I like the colours. They are superb. Great shot Thomas.

A beatiful experiment that actually wasn't one, yes, it looks heavily PPed, the sky I have hardly ever seen that saturated, but anyway, I am not bothered, as this looks great...
Well done!
Frank

Excellent Capture Tom! It seems like a symphony of water and light.. an eye candy!

Hi Tom,
Very well seen and nicely executed! Gives an abstract feel, so unlike your other work... Did you try to experiment a little with curves? You can bring more punch to colours by that, but of course that will be a different picture... This one is good as it is -
Regards,

I've taken photos of Lake Geneva's fountain and I've seen many photos (great ones, even those on post cards) and have yet to see one as good as this one. Bravo!
