Memorial Fountain

The 'Botanic Brook' enters the gardens from the Parklands, and immediately collects in a large dammed (?) pond, complete with fountain. Viewed from elsewhere, the fountain is part of a remembrance architecture (there's an arch as well) to commemorate Australian and American friendship during WWII. It always amuses me to see Japanese tourists standing there for photos, not knowing what it is that they use for a backdrop.

I fooled around with shutter speed a bit, the next photo looks pretty textured at full resolution...
