    Was finally able to make it to the striking Salk Institute on the cliffs of La Jolla above Blacks Beach. This Louis Kahn designed architectural icon houses one of the most advanced infectious disease labs in the country. This challenge was perfect for this reflecting fountain and I'm pretty happy with the shot!

    ^Nice one! I've been down there a few times but have never been to the Salk Institute, I need to go check it out sometime.
    Great symmetry and I really like it in black and white!

    Does the water in motion have to have the silk look to it?

    Also, is there a reason why the OP isn't updated? Or are we waiting for an official challenge?

    Hehe no problem! I was wondering what was going on :)

    Sweet! Saw an oddly placed fountain at the hotel I stayed at in NorCal and captured it, hoping it didn't need to have the silk since I left my tripod home :)

    EDIT

    Here's my entry..
