The outdoor pools at Bundoran
Bundoran: a somewhat faded seaside town a few miles over the border from where we are. Richard only had to say 'seaside town' for me to be hooked; all the more so once I discovered that Bundoran has two outdoor tidal swimming pools.
It's been really hot here today, and normally I'd have swum in at least one of them. But I sprained my ankle the other day; it's been painful, though it is improving, and I felt wary of slipping on the wet rocks and making it worse again. This, however, left plenty of time for fun with the camera.
And of course, others were far hardier than me :-)
The main shot is the 'West End Pool' on a stretch of pavement beach. The extra is the 'Thrupenny Pool', nearer to the town centre. Wonderful places. People relaxing in that rather timeless way that beaches make possible; far, far away from the increasing horrors of the news.
