DescriptionA view of the lagoon and conservancy park bathing beach in Albuquerque, New Mexico. A cluster of at least fourteen people are gathered on the sandy portion of the beach near the right side of the frame. Large trees also line the sand portions of the beach to provide shade to the visitors. A wooden lifeguard stand is stationed in the center of the lagoon with a lifeguard keeping watch. A small island with several small bushes and trees is also located in the lagoon. In the far background, a white wooden building can be seen with several people going in and coming out. A scrubby beach is in the foreground with small weeds and a water spicket sticking out of the ground. A small tree providing minimal amounts of shade is also seen in this portion of the beach.
