I Heart Macro - A Walk In The Park

Today on this hot Sunday morning I thought that I would go down to the park that is nestled between the tall downtown office buildings.  This little park that only spans one city block is a quite and peaceful place for employees of the office buildings to spend their lunch breaks.  Here are some cooling pictures for you to enjoy on this hot day.



Don't you just want to jump in and splash around in the cool water of this beautiful fountain. I know I did!



Or sit at the base of this waterfall fountain and just let the rushing water pour over your head, Ahh so cool!

Even the plant life is getting to enjoy a cool drink of water this morning.


One of the pretty flowers growing in the park.

Well are you feeling any cooler?  I hope so, I know it was cooling to stand close to the fountains and feel the mist of the water as it fell in to the wading pools surrounding the fountains.

Now jump on over to Studio Waterstone and check out what others have been doing on the I Heart Macro Sunday.

  8. Hehe. I used to get in trouble as a kid for climbing into fountains. The one you shared would be too hard to pass up, even as an adult. What is the purpose of fountains if one can't just "use" them?

  9. Beautiful pictures! I never would have expected from those first two that it was a fountain. XD It looked like a beautiful piece of quartz. Can you imagine? Lovely!
