0058 Laps

Bondi Baths, near Bondi Beach, Sydney NSW

This shot looks down into a pool (the Bondi Baths) that is located at the southern end of Bondi Beach near the Bondi Icebergs Club.

Ah, the joy of being clueless enough to not notice the effect of shadows on your shot and move to the left a bit. ({Looks at it again...} Or actually, maybe not. I'm not sure.)

I could probably have done without the Hog's Breath Café ad being there too since that brings back bad memories, though those were 5 and a half years into the future when I shot this and I was blissfully unaware of them at that time. (Nothing to do with the restaurant itself, I add.)

Having looked at this shot both ways in Photoshop I'm still not sure whether I should have cropped the ads in the background out and made the image consist only of the swimmers, or left them (and the ocean) in for context.

As a keen swimmer I would love be in there myself at the moment. Great capture, movement and colours...
