This blog is about a landscape architect student studying at ECA (Edinburgh College of Art) and currently on exchange in Guelph, Canada, this blog will focus on exploration and the experiences, insights and reflections during this exchange here in Canada.
I have been told on several occasions by different lecturers and visiting professionals in the educational system that landscape architecture is a lot of things, but "...it's not art". A statement that sometimes feels a bit narrowed minded to make, but can hold some truth to it. //-Jacob

Arboretum


Right around the corner from where I live there is an arboretum. The other day I went there in the crisp cold. It was a beautiful winter day and I absolutely loved the place. So nice to get away from the huge cars. Yes, the cars are actually on steroids here. Don't understand why people "need" to drive around in these huge trucks. Anyway, getting side tracked here.

I was getting to the arboretum. Walking around there I found a nice fountain in the snow that was still running for some reason. Never seen that before.
Walking around the fountain I found a second one, I didn't see it at first because it was frozen but still running water inside the layer of ice. Made a short movie clip of it with my phone (that's quite old).

Really awesome!
