I've been away for a while. Here's one of the things I've been doing.

Get some 1"x6" planks and a pond liner, and construct a shallow pool. Then get two pumps like used for fountains and connect them to sprinkler heads. Find some willing models and shoot away. Have the models stand in front of the spray, behind the spray, or in the spray. In the spray can get chilly, so a heater can be added in series with the pump.

I put some results here. One is with sprinklers on and the rest are studies on reflections in the water.

Neat setup. Think I'll try the spray idea in my hot tub.

Dont forget that the water needs to be recirculated else you will have a very empty hot hub very quickly!!

I have one of those submersable pumps already, so it shouldn't be a problem.

Interesting how close the wall sockets are to the splash zone.

Could be electrifying...
