James Scott Memorial Fountain

on Belle Isle


 When my daughter, Amy, was in Michigan we went to see the fountain on Belle Isle. I have never seen it running and was very impressed. I think I photographed it from every angle and edited the photo to within an inch of their life. It was a beautiful sunny day and the reflections off the white marble was a challenge. Think that I got a few good ones though. Thank you, Amy, for going with me...it was a great time!
