It is only in still water that we can see," Debbi encourages all to take time with this artful collection of retro, luxury, and modern swimming pools and come away inspired. <BR>Printed by Four Colour Print Group, the 168-pages in this coffee table book are filled with exploding colors and dramatic images by photographers from around the world.

You can follow her on Facebook, Twitter and on her blog. <p/><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><br>In a way that is thoughtful and inspiring, Debbi DiMaggio guides us on a journey of self discovery that seamlessly combines stunning images with words of wisdom. <i>Contained Beauty</i> ensures that you will never look a swimming pool the same way again.<br>--Toula Victor, author of <i>Spa Wanderlust</i> <p/>I have had the great pleasure of witnessing Debbi DiMaggio's remarkable ability to intertwine images and concepts with thoughtful interpretation and poignancy. Contained Beauty is a manifestation of those unique talents.
