The pool that taunted me in Jogjakarta

Can you believe that I looked at that pool every day and I never got in? It was there day after day… alluring and perfect… looking warm and fun… I would walk around it, admire it, take photos of it, pass it on the way to the spa… I did just about everything to that pool but get in. I thought about it a lot, for whatever that’s worth (a lot, actually, I have an active imagination). But next time I get there, I’m goin in… I think about what those little tiles will feel like slippin’ around under my toes… It’s gonna be great!

Is this a repost? If not it reminds me a lot of one of your others from a few months back. Great work as always though, must've been hell getting the shot when it was empty.

sometimes you need to put down the camera, and just jump in. That is really amazing.

Lovely shot Trey, the whole place looks warm and inviting. I would have set everything up, had a damn good swim, then taken the shot. Don't you feel more alive after a good swim?

You just made that pool look sacred, like no one's worthy enough to take a swim in it.
