Description
“The dog is the perfect portrait subject. He doesn’t pose. He isn’t aware of the camera.”
~ Peter Demarchelier
~ born 1943
~ French fashion photographer
This beautiful Black Labrador Retriever certainly isn’t striking a pose but is a picture perfect portrait of man’s best friend enjoying a swim in the Bushkill Creek on a beautiful mid-October afternoon in Henry’s Woods at Jacobsburg State Park, which spans between Wind Gap and Nazareth, Pennsylvania.
Jacobsburg offers environmental education programs from the preschool environmental awareness programs to high school level environmental problem solving programs, historical programs, teacher workshops and public interpretive programs. Once the site where the famous Henry Rifle was made, the Jacobsburg National Historic District lies almost entirely within the park. Henry’s Woods offers very scenic hikes and the rest of the center grounds have multi-use trails.
The park surrounds the Bushkill Creek.
The original land for the center was purchased by the Department of Forests and Waters from the City of Easton in 1959. In 1969, additional land was purchased using funds from Project 70. This brought the total land area of the center to its present size of 1,168 acres.
