Unsafe access for a newly built public swimming pool

I’ve been to Esher and Cobham and to be honest that was far enough. Who knows what horrors are out there in… Berkshire!

I do wonder for annoying guy if we’d have issues from just editing the photo with the object eraser tool?

I’ve done it before

But for the second photo the rule isn’t so strong as it won’t get published

I waited about, couldn’t get a picture without someone in it, decided to leave it and saw the sign and didn’t mind having someone in the background for the support.

I erased myself out of the reflection for this

Coming to the party late :sunglasses:
I do think that in the U.K. we are much more reluctant about indoor POI. So I think an appeal would be ok.
Otherwise it’s that problem of do you get good up to date set of reviewers or ones set in their ways :woman_shrugging:
Now getting all reviewers in the up to date pool is a tough one that needs sorting.

Yeah, it isnt easy to get a good picture from the outside looking in etc. Regardless of the being inside thing, I just cant get my head around the safety thing. Reviewers are weird :laughing:

I agree about the reviewers. I literally have to spell out in the supporting text why it doesn’t break the inclusion rules (eg it isn’t a single family private dwelling for something at a block of flats or a care home, or that a great view is the nomination with a bench as an anchor point as per the updated criteria clarification in the community forum, or that inside the grounds of a private business is still ok if it meets the criteria as it doesn’t need to be open to everyone…) Still haven’t managed to get anything indoors accepted I now realise! I swear the British would reject a nomination for the Mona Lisa because it’s indoors…

I suppose I over estimated people… google maps shows the leisure centre pin on this building… pool at the leisure centre… i dont know anymore. If people have that little comprehension why are they doing a task that involves reading?

I think you are right Mona Lisa, indoors, reject would be likely outcome.
Maybe @frealafgb the supporting needs the ELI 5 treatment- link to the leisure centre website especially something featuring the pool. Link to criteria clarifications. Etc…

The sad thing is theres another pool there, different building, no sign, very tiny high up windows so cant get a shot of the inside from the outside.

Will be hard to get a picture inside with no one in it, since its only opened when they hold fitness classes inside, and the fitness classes are on at times where I go to other classes (typical!!!)

But it’s on my list.

I’m sure you are resourceful enough to find a way :+1:

If they add some new classes I will go to them and get a picture hopefully before the class starts.

This leisure centre does classes every day but somehow manages to put all the ones Im interested in on the same 2 days :laughing:

On a slight digression has anyone ever been hassled, questioned for taking pictures in a public place but that maybe has no photography policies?

Indoors I’d imagine people might be a bit more paranoid.

No but I was definitely worried about the swimming pool - I guess thats why I wanted to do it soon after opening, where it might not look as odd. Definitely didn’t want any kids in shot

I have been asked what I’m doing, but that was at an allotment so no issues with photos, and they weren’t angry, just curious
