Pools from Above

Sitting in the backyard, at the community center, or in your gym is an unexpected photo waiting to happen: the pool from above.

A ubiquitous shape in summer's landscape, the unique harmony, curves, and hues of pools aren't apparent until you look on them from the air. Photographed by Brad Walls using drones, this photo series captures the unexpected beauty and symmetry of our everyday landscape from a new perspective, playing with negative spaces and shadows to transform the commonplace into images as refreshing as their subjects.
