i can not tell if lighting is real or artificial- although it looks very real to me.... does not matter
you have absolutely optimal lighting in this photograph and it is magnificant, one could only dream of
a lighting situation like this. i dont mean to be blunt- but if you were to take that away- then the
scene becomes just another water scene as many- but this is magical.... ~rio

@e11even: thank you, I like bluntness :-) you are right, it's just a water fountain caught at just the right time. the lighting is natural sunrise on the fountain!
@Rags: thanks for your visit! I appreciate your comment
Alphons from Kaatsheuvel, Netherlands

Could be the river of dreams, and the font of wisdom in a Utopian dream. Utterly beguiling, mesmeric and beautiful to the eyes. A jewel of a photograph, Cheryl
