Steel and water symmetry
Coming from the more temperate climes of northern England, I notice how popular such open air pools are in Germany. This particular one is, unfortunately, under constant threat. It is surrounded by some of the most expensive houses in Saarbrücken and it cannot be long before the property developer vultures move in.

Pirates in the waves
Public open air swimming pools are extremely popular in the Summer in Germany. The Schwarzenbergbad, the main open air pool in Saarbrücken, has just had a wall painted with a colourful mural. I assume that an an artist was contracted to paint it, but judging by the Graffiti Mile down by the Saar, I think there are plenty of good artists that would do it just for fun.
