This appears to be a black-and-white negative of an outdoor swimming pool scene with retro aesthetics. The pool is rectangular with a diving board extending into it from the foreground. Several poolside lounge chairs are arranged along the edges, and a couple of tall palm trees add a tropical vibe. In the background, there are low-rise buildings, possibly motel rooms or vacation units, with glass doors or windows. A vintage car can be seen parked on the left side, enhancing the scene's mid-20th-century feel. The entire image has inverted colors due to the negative format, which makes the sky appear dark and other elements visually reversed.
