Summer Hill, fountain

This fountain and mural on the side of an Italian restaurant give this public plaza a European feel. The small town square is located in the inner west suburb of Summer Hill, on the corner of Lackey Street and Hardie Avenue.

    It´s more green than water in this fountain. Smart and stylish watering in all cases

    Fountains are so much fun! It reminds me of a fountain in Napier. Thanks for posting.

    You're absolutely right...someone looking at this could easily think France or Italy, perhaps.

    Nice shot!

    When there is added stimulus, such as texture, colours, paintings, shrubbery...it certainly brings the senses to life where new stories can be told and life is truly lived
