Photographer's Note
In the interior of the big Axis, in a high part of the giant avenue, you can see this monumental fountain, located few meters far from the TV Tower, that was illuminated too, but it was so poor in visual effect, looking like a giant stairs of some mason, I gave up the idea to post it.
The first version of these fountains was inaugurated in 1967, but it was abandoned. The versions of 1998 and 2003 were abandoned too, and the fourth new version was created in 2010 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the city.
The main jet reach 50 meters of height and the fountain is one of the ten largest of the world.
I was so frustrate because the effects of light in the fountain weren't so special for me, and the tower of TV was so bad adorned with lights and this was my best photo. I will show you an image of it during the day, almost at the end of my journey. I see this fountain everyday in the news of TV when they talk about the weather in the whole country.
...........
No interior do Eixão, numa parte alta da grande avenida, está localizada essa fonte luminosa, mesmo junto da Torre de TV, que estava iluminada também, mas parecia tão feia como uma escada de pedreiro gigante, acabei desistindo de incluir na foto.
A primeira versão desta fonte foi criada em 1967 e anos depois, abandonada. As versões de 1998 e 2003 foram igualmente abandonadas. A versão atual data de 2010 e foi criada para celebrar os 50 anos de Brasília.
O jato de água principal alcança 50 metros de altura e a fonte é uma das dez maiores do mundo.
Fiquei frustrado pois os efeitos de luz e cor da fonte não me pareceram assim tão especiais como eu esperava. Mostrarei uma imagem da fonte quase no final dessa jornada fotográfica.

Hello Jorge,
It's an impressive fountain and with these colours it may look like an unintended tribute to Ukraine (or Sweden?). You managed a good exposure in the darkness and captured fine reflections.
Best regards,
Gert

Hi Jorge,
Wow this is a great shot. The illuminations of the fountains look really impressive at the nighttime. That is right, the modern city like Brasilia offers certailnly great photo opportunities also at night.
Nice asymmetric capture here.
Excellent work,

Hi Jorge,
The light reflections on the water are assets to the composition. The point of view is showing the details of the fountain. The surrounding light is giving good colors rendering. Have a nice day.

Hi Jorge,
Long exposure gives very smooth appearance to those fountains. Yellow and blue is a good colour combination. The pool where these fountains are looks quite big.

Hello Jorge, the bright blue is particularly eye catching in the thumbnails, inviting a closer look.
The fountain highlighted in a yellow light looks impressive.
The very dark night means that the colours stand out very well.
Kind regards, Jean.

Hola Jorge.
Esplendida composicion nocturna con esta bonita fuente, que ademas se ve muy grande, ideales los reflejos en la superficie del agua.
Nitidez, iluminación y color estan magnificos
Buen trabajo. Me gusta.
Que tengas un buen dia. Saludos muy cordiales.
Luis.
