Description
The Fountain at Dupont Circle, Washington D.C.I took this piece using an infrared converted Canon 40D (590nm) and a lensbaby composer pro with the sweet 35 optic.
The figure there is the 'Sea'. I took a photo of the 'Wind', so that should be uploaded to DeviantArt sometime this year. Sadly, I did not take any photos of the 'Stars', mostly because the lighting put the 'Stars' in shadow.
This is the beauty of infrared photography! Similar to , this piece was taken at the height of summer; the sky was blue, the trees green and the fountain a sandy beige.

Adoro eel contraste de los colores y el efecto que pusiste ahΓ para resaltar la escultura y la estructura en la estatua. Hasta pareciese que las palomas son parte de la escultura de la fuente (gracias a l efecto de la cΓ‘mara) xD

the blurred edges of the image immediately draw the eyes to the fountain. Masterful.

Just read the details of the description above and am so surprised you didn't take this in Europe but in DC! Really want to visit there even more now.

I have not explored DC fully, but I imagine there are many great locations for photography there. Every day to work, I pass the Capitol Building and think to myself that I really should go there on my off-work-days and shoot it - infrared-style.
Thank you for your comment!

Love your work, it inspires me, calms me and reminds me of art, books, travel, and the benefits of studying history and doing serious self reflection.Β

Thank you, though I'm not sure why the piece was placed in your digital art favorites folder? It's a pure photograph.

Wonderful photo! Love the focus & blurring & the contrast that comes from the colors of the tree

Here we go with that blurring effect again! Absolutely amazing! I love how the main focus is on the fountain and the birds and trees bring it out even more!

It is the beauty of the lensbaby. I mostly shoot with that lens because it produces this kind of effect.
Thank you so much for the comment!

I like how you captured movement in this shot, it is simply stunning! I also like the red trees in the background, they are very eye-catching and give a nice contrast to the fountain.
