Shaker by Heather Jansch at Sculpture by the Lakes.
Heather Jansch (1948 – 2021), was a renowned British sculptor whose lifelong passion was to achieve mastery of the equine form.
Her pioneering use of driftwood as a medium was frequently copied, but rarely rivalled.
Heather spent many years perfecting the complex translation of her original driftwood works into bronze, establishing a technique that often made them indistinguishable from the original.

liquidambar bobble and some of the tiny seeds that came out when i shook it (the pod is about 2 cm diam., less than an inch, and the seeds like bits of crushed pepper).

My 2015 rendition of my favorite all time autumn scene. Meeting House Lane, Shaker Village, Canterbury, New Hampshire.
Going to work one morning I had to jump out of my car and run into the park across the street from my house-the sun was streaming through the mist and lighting up the leaves and I was just blown away with its beauty
Unnamed Falls
Shawnee Run Creek
The Preserve
Shaker Village, Kentucky

I've known about the unnamed waterfall in The Preserve on the grounds of Shaker Village for years now but since I'm rarely in that area I've never made the trip there. Located about 20 miles south of Lexington, Kentucky it is absolutely worth the trip and online research played a big part in the timing to pay this beautiful place a visit. After viewing photos of the falls online I saw an image where the sun set behind the falls, meaning late afternoon will be the prime time to stop by. So with a day of full on sun forecasted for Sunday we mulled around Frankfort, which is about an hour away, before heading down. From what I can gather, this is a spring fed waterfall as the water comes directly out of the hillside a foot wide then spreads out to 30 feet as it reaches Shawnee Run Creek. Many years ago an old mill sat opposite the falls, named Fulling Mill, the remains of the foundation are still visible. I really loved the setting of this falls, and I really wanted to get a bit closer but the water, although only two feet deep, was moving quite quickly and photographs from the water would have been difficult. Now that I've been here, I can't wait to come back, with a little less flow on Shawnee Run Creek and get up close and personal with this little known beauty.
