She was funny. Kept getting surprised by the fountains when they came on.

She kept sticking her head on the fountain and then running back over to her parents laughing.

10 steps. Bokeh on the river.

10 steps, resting mourning dove.

10 steps, boats on the river.

So I went down to Riverside Park for my third set and found a ton of local kids playing in the fountains. Also about 5 of my classmates planted around the edges. ;) So I started my set there and sat for about 20 minutes snapping the kids playing and the water before continuing on. All the parents were snapping away too and nobody seemed too concerned about it. I would have liked to move in closer to get some shots of the water, but any time I tried, there was an enthusiastic little one running through slapping water everywhere and my Canon is definitely not waterproof so it had to be like a stealth ninja operation going in there. Run in, snap and run out.
