Conservatory fountain
In one of the back areas of the incredible and huge Conservatory in the Bronx Botanical Garden in New York City, I found this fountain. The sound of splashing water was wonderful, and the air smelled so good. I like the way the water looks dark and mysterious.
For more photos of water in its many manifestations, visit Watery Wednesday.
Great fountain. Thanks for sharing
Nice catch!!! Mine’s up hope you can drop by… Happy WW!
Tis another watery day in Seattle. It’s even wet inside, but still beautiful.
You’re right. The water does look dark and mysterious — but the photo is very pleasing.
I think I saw this garden in one CSI NY episode.. Nonetheless, great photo! 🙂
Kind of reminds me of the botanical gardens in Birmingham, England.
Nice to be able to keep three such lovelies in one’s conservatory.
I love fountains. The sound of the falling water, and you’re right…the smell! I never thought about that before. Thanks for sharing.
AH! Another fountain. I just love them.
Happy WW
Beautiful fountain. So peaceful.
I love going through greenhouses and botanical gardens.
Nice scene. I picture it being hot and sweaty in that greenhouse…maybe that mysterious water cools things down!
Very beautiful, nice picture.
what a cool fountain…can see why you photographed it…
This is very pretty, we have lots of gardens in Calif but none of them have anything quite like this!
Wow, this was really beautiful. I’m going to disagree wit Amanda Guthrie (smile). The Los Angeles Arboretum has a green house and orchid green house that though they don’t have something like this statue in it, is beautiful in it’s own right.

There’s a small pond to the left and a water feature in the very back that don’t show in the top photo on the link I provided.
I love this composition! Looking at this photo makes me feel happy and content. It’s so soothing, too.
Lovely photo!
Really a beautiful fountain in the middle of that little pond! And you framed it so well with all the great plants! Wonderful shot!
Who’s garden it is? It’s pretty 🙂
Happy WW!
Oh, so lovely!
