Empty Swimming Pool


June 25, 2015. This is the swimming pool at St Patricks, where I go for spin class. I don't use the pool at all, and I don't like swimming at all (because I get all wet). But I've never seen the pool completely empty like this, so I thought I'd take a photo. From Flickr http://ift.tt/1SQbMaH

    This is an amazing picture. I've been wanting to go take photos of empty swimming pools because of their ominous aesthetic. Do you have a picture of this pool with water in it?

      No, only the empty one. And I no longer live there. But there's a photo on their site: http://stpatsfamilycentre.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_3965-e1491854402165.jpg

March 2, 2024. The frozen surface of Dow's lake with a sheen of meltwater on it. This was a view as I took an 11 km ride on my new bicycle today. First ride of the year, first ride on the new bike. The bike exceeded my expectations, and though it was cold and still icy, the ride was a great start to the year. https://flic.kr/p/2pBgiGM

Print

March 22, 2024. Print by someone known as 'Ryan 100' in our room at the Brookstreet. I liked it, through it looked like it was water damaged. It was still the best art in the room. Worked through the morning, drove home at lunch (much easier!) and spent the afternoon working from home. I spent the day (as I have all week) mostly trying to get my website back online after a server move by my hosting provider toasted my full website. https://flic.kr/p/2pF332R

March 24, 2024. Cedar waxwings, high in the treetops (where they link to hang out), spotted on our walk in Guindon Park, near Cornwall. The rest of the day was spent recovering my website. https://flic.kr/p/2pFeB2E
