We've all had the occasion to be in the right place at the right time for a photo. I had another such occasion last Friday when I happened by this member of a band who was climbing into a fountain downtown. He happily tooted away for a few minutes on his tuba, and when he'd finished, he "smiled" at all of us who were clicking away on cameras or cell phones, climbed out, and joined his still-dry band to play some more tunes to practice for Nišville (NEESH-vil), a jazz festival take-off on Nashville to be held in the town of Niš, a couple of hours' drive from Belgrade. Last Friday temperatures rose to 37 degrees Celsius here, which is 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit. All onlookers were envying his dip in the fountain.

Cool music in the fountain!

START THE DAY OFF RIGHT
As a kid, I was a Wheaties, Shredded Wheat, Rice Crispies, and Sugar Pops kid. Later, in France I morphed into a croissant/beurre/confiture...

Wonder shot, you’ve done well here!
Great picture! He sure looks happy with himself. I'd be in the fountain to at 104 degrees!

Good shot!

How fun! Since I'm a percussionist, I never could have gotten my instrument into the fountain without damaging it, but what a wonderful way to play!
