Sea horse, Skyline and some stars …

Buckingham Fountain at Chicago, is seriously beautiful. One of the favorite spots in the city, one can literally spend hours hours watching the fountain. The backdrop of Chicago or the lake, behind the fountain make it even more gorgeous.

With 134 jets and a fountain capacity of 1.5 million gallons, it roughly pumps 14,100 gallons of water per minute. Water is re-circulated from the base pool after the basins are filled and not drawn from the outside except to replace losses from wind and evaporation. Some amazing engineering – be it the stupendous architecture or the the lighting at the dusk or the synchronous musical play that goes along with the lighting. The fountain located in the shores of Lake Michigan also symbolizes Lake Michigan, with four pairs of sea horses representing the four states that border Lake Michigan's shoreline.

It was really lovely to see the Cassiopeia (Constellation) shining atop, even amidst all that man made city light. By the by, that lovely blue building, that u see there - that is where I work out of, lucky me … or not ;-)
