Indoor Swimming Pool Scene

Empty municipal indoor swimming pool after closing, 4:5, 35mm, f/2.8. One lane of still pale-green water, worn off-white tile with cracked grout, a wet starting block in the foreground. High window at camera-left as a grey dusk rectangle, leftover fluorescent still on, condensation, paper-warm shadows in the corners, slightly fogged air. Northern public baths, not a resort. No people, no spa marble, no sunset, no underwater, no text. Quiet editorial documentary still, muted grade toward warm paper. Empty plastic gallery seats above the water, round wall clock ignored by the hour. Tired fluorescent. 35mm, 3:2. No people.
