Default Handstand by the Fountain
Just played around a bit with this in LR.

Upped saturation, cooled it down, vignette, and bumped up contrast and blacks a bunch.

Let me know what you think

Second shot is SO full of life and energy. Makes me happy just looking at it.

You do not know this, but Blue is my favorite color! I love how the subject is in the middle of the two bursts of H20. The only thing is that I would have kept the skin tone the same - (but then again, it looks like a great tan!) lovely photo!

Thanks for all the kind words
Hope I could make this shot worthwhile, afterall it did cost him his phone.
Fell right into the water.
It was his idea to do the handstand though, so no guilt on my behalf.
