Excellent idea. My thoughts: crop lower - don’t cut off their feet. Larger f-stop = more bokeh. How about trying it in b/w?

You are totally on the right track, though. JMHO.

Dueling canes as well! Great shot, love the color for a garden, agree with comment on crop-well done!

I agree with Andy for the most part. Would question the bokah. I think the fountain ties in nicely with the umbrellas and adds a bit of humor (if the fountain should suddenly go wild, they're prepared). This is a most auspicious beginning.

Interesting shot. You have heard about the cropping of the feet. I like it in color, it really brings out the umbrellas, more than B/W. Nice comment about being prepared for the fountain to go wild. And the bonus canes. 👍
