Fuente de Pescados Photo

Photographer’s Note

The enormous Fountain of the Fish (Fuente de Pescados) lies at the center of ruined cloister at the monastery attached to La Merced church. The monastery was totally destroyed by the Santa Marta quakes that led to the abandonment of Antigua and was never rebuilt. The fountain is reputedly named for the fish-breeding experiments done there by the Mercedarian brothers. It is largest of Antigua's many fountains, with a diameter of over 80 feet.

Nice picture but it would look better if you'd taken it landscape mode and remove the shaded area on the bottom. It is kind of distracting from the main focus point.
keep trying
