I decided to place my camera as low to the water as possible to try and get this prehistoric angle look
The website for Malibu Creek State Park describes the park like this in its opening paragraph:
Considered the recreational crown jewel of the Santa Monica Mountains, Malibu Creek State Park has over 8,000 acres of rolling tallgrass plains, oak savannahs and dramatic peaks. It's no wonder many call it "The Yosemite of Southern California".
The park was owned by 20th Century Fox from 1946-1974, and portions of classic movies like Planet of the Apes, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, M*A*S*H, and have been filmed in and around here.
Rock Pool is now a place where kids hang out on summer weekends and jump off the cliffs into the water -- even though it's specifically prohibited on signs. This lone tree got some nice afternoon light on it and its reflection was framed nicely by these two rocks in the foreground.
Pool just outside the sandstone walls of Winsor Castle, the fortified ranch house built by Mormon settlers over Pipe Spring to take possession of and protect the valuable water which belonged to Kaibab Paiute Indians. Tribal lands of the Kaibab band of Paiute Indians, Arizona.
Champagne Pool is a hot spring located within the Waiotapu geothermal area in the North Island of New Zealand. The name Champagne Pool is derived from the constant efflux of carbon dioxide gas, similar to a glass of bubbling champagne. The vibrant colors come from a rich deposition of minerals and silicate. The silicate structures around the edge of the pool is teeming with microbial life.

Situated in Estoril, next to the train station, the Tamariz Beach is the most cosmopolitan in Cascais area. Detached from the Estoril Casino’s beautiful Gardens by the Marginal Road and the train, Tamariz Beach is one of the tourist centres in the region, with several bars and clubs. It is a quite comfortable beach for those using public transportation.
The beach is not provided with a car parking of its own, therefore it is common in summer time that all the areas around the beach are crowded.

From the website:
The installation, created by PLAYLAB Inc., Family New York and Friends of +POOL and funded by Heineken, The Howard Hughes Corporation and the National Endowment for the Arts, is a 50 x 50-foot plus sign composed of a series of LED lights that change color based on the water quality. They glow blue when the water is safe to swim in, and pink when it’s not. The direction with which the lights illuminate is based on the movement of the water’s current, and the speed with which the lights move is determined by the water’s velocity.
Pedestrians make their way across this infinity pool walkway between a small inland lake and the Bristol Channel.

Panorama of the Sapphire Pool, Yellowstone National Park. Some info from www.yellowstonenationalpark.com "Temperature 200-202°F Dimensions 18x30 feet. Sapphire Pool, named for its blue, crystal-clear water and for its resemblance to an Oriental sapphire, was once a placid hot pool. It was not until after the 1959 earthquake that major eruptions occurred. For several years following the earthquake powerful eruptions at two hour intervals reached 150 feet. The force of the eruptions caused the crater to double in size, destroying the biscuit-like formations around its edge, and the crystal-clear water became murky. By 1968 Sapphire ceased to function as a true geyser. Today Sapphire still retains its crystal-clear, blue water, and still violently boils and surges occasionally.
