A watching photo for the Vintage Photos Theme Park. "Viewing fish from 'Walk Under Water.' Nature's Giant Fish Bowl, Homosassa Springs, Fla. 2-E-540." Visitors to Homosassa Springs, a Florida tourist attraction promoted as "Nature's Giant Fish Bowl," could watch the fish swimming in the waters of the springs through glass panels--as we can see in this real photo postcard--in a "'Walk Under Water" observatory that was located below water level. (In this day and age, the glass ashtray there on the ledge seems a bit out of place.) Today, the state of Florida has preserved the site, which is now known as the Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park . The park still has a "Fish Bowl" underwater observatory, where visitors can view fish as well as manatees. For photos and postcards from other Florida springs, see my images tagged with Silver Springs and Weeki Wachee Springs .
