Photo-a-Day - October 2012 - Day 15:  Fountain

There are a number of fountains in my neighborhood; the ones at the Mormon Temple, the simple one at the Greek Cathedral, the aerating fountains in Lake Merritt.  Somewhere I have photos of numerous fountains from my trip to France.

However, I happened to be at a friends house and remember the fountain in her backyard.  Everything about this spoke to me of the coming of fall.  The last vegetables on the vines which may, or may not ripen; the drained fountain and, of course, the fallen leaves. 

The choice became very simple and very clear.  This was my fountain for today.
