The many moods of Salmon Street Fountain

I think I'm lucky and captured at least three of the main patterns that this fountain is capable of -- not that you'd know it with this long exposure. The main hubble-bubble mode seems to swamp some of the more subtle activity that happens near the middle.

 

This was taken late on a Sunday night in August. Every time I photograph at this location, and it nearly always is on a Sunday evening, there's the aftermath of a Russian wedding going on down there. I don't know if I'm lucky, but statistician in me tells me that this cannot be chance! Anyway, on this occasion, the bride and groom, plus half of their entourage, wandered through the frame on several occasions. As usual for this time of night, my pinhole camera decided to ignore any curious souls and those blissfully unaware alike.
