Archibald fountain - people taking photos of each other!

I had been intending to do a follow up post to Off to the Archies. I have been responding to emails since I got home. Tonight, instead, I want to share with you one photos. Comments follow the photos. Walking back from the exhibition through Hyde Park, I passed the Archibald Fountain. This was funded by J F Archibald.

The fountain was surrounded by people taking photos of each other. More people see the fountain and stop to look each week than the entire numbers that see the Prize exhibition. That's not a bad memorial.
