All the neighborhood kids in my part of town lived at this swimming pool during the summer months, arriving when it opened and staying until closing most days. I still can't pass it by without being flooded with the memories of lazy days and carefree summer fun. The facade is art deco style. It's painted a bright turquoise and purple, but I quite like it in black and white.
@missmercy Thanks Miss Mercy! It is a Lido pool, in fact. It is actually built above ground. The entrance and dressing rooms are at ground level and then you climb a flight of stairs to get up to the pool deck.
@mizhayz Thank you so much for the fav! I love art deco architecture,too. I bet you have some fantastic examples of that style in your area. I'd love to see a FL art deco shot sometime. {hint hint} :)
Oh perfect with the memories and all! I like B & W and it goes with your story...I have to admit though that it sounds like it'd be good in the turquoise and purple too!
Nice work putting it in B&W. We all know it is Art Deco & it must be painted in those sort of colours but B&W fires up my imagination to put those colours in there. Nice work.
