My tribute to the fountain at Martin Place which goes unnoticed on a daily basis in the hustle bustle of the city. I tried to depict the same through this image, where the silver water of the fountain signifies a silver lining in the lives of ordinary people who are just so consumed by their lives and fail to notice small things that bring a smile on their faces.
