A taster from Chatsworth
We visited Chatsworth House today for the annual sculpture exhibition in the gardens. Lot's of shots to process and show but, for now, here's a few non-sculpture shots to share with you. Hope you like them!
 Up at the Grotto Pond the reflections of the acers in their autumn colours was beautiful.  The stream running down the hill now and again runs through these stepped troughs. No idea why but I liked the look of them.  The Emperor Fountain at Chatsworth. Rainwater is collected at the top of the hill and feeds the fountain so it is powered by gravity. That's about as low carbon footprint as you can get! I love the way it makes its own rainbow.  The fan from a Rolls-Royce jet engine displayed on the Conservative Wall at Chatsworth House

Beautiful Fall colors and reflections, as well as your composition make the 1st shot a favorite. I love the 2nd as well, simple and well composed. I've seen similar arrangements in the mountains here in South Korea; turns out they are mountain run off and the spring water is pure and cool to drink.
Thanks for sharing these Michael

Beautiful images as always Nathan.
we are so lucky to live close to this national treasure. I had a walk around the little village there Edensor about 2 weeks ago and the weather could not be so different. Love the images mate. David.

I also find the reflected colors somewhat of a gem. I really like the fountain as well! The rainbow curve echoes the water's curve very well. It's quite dynamic and something you don't really see everyday! Good shots overall!
