After the comments from my last posting, I went back and regenerated the
fountain. I decreased the blob threshold, added a more aggressive decay on
the blob sphere radius, and added some jitter to the particles to reduce
the uniformity from my previous posting. 

I've attached two images. One has a regular pigment coloring (rgb
<0.9,0.95,1>), while the other uses a more complex texture and interior set
(see below). It lets you see the structure underneith and how it plays out
with the mostly transparent, reflective texture.

The real-water texture:

    texture {
        pigment { color rgbt <0.9, 0.95, 1.0, 0.9 > }
        finish {
            reflection {
                0.0, 1.0
                fresnel on
            }
        }
    }
    interior {
        ior 1.33
    }
