The filled-pool photograph is the dominant reference because water has the greatest influence on the colour you experience. The smaller sample helps you inspect the underlying base and speckle.
A saturated blue base with dark and light speckle. The Eli Waters reference shows how the finish reads through water in one outdoor pool setting.

A softer blue base with dark and light speckle. The Carseldine reference shows the water colour in a completed vinyl-liner conversion.

A light grey base with black and white speckle. Under water it can read as a pale blue-grey, with depth and surrounding tones influencing the result.

A warm neutral base with contrasting speckle. Under water it transforms to a tropical green-blue.

These colour samples images are a guide only. Screens, photography, water depth, light and surroundings can shift the perceived colour. Viewing a physical sample is recommended before choosing a finish.
The finish remains the same product selection, but the way it is perceived changes with the pool and its setting. Use completed-pool photographs for direction while allowing for differences in your pool.
Deeper water can intensify or cool the apparent colour, while shallow steps and ledges usually read lighter.
Direct sun, cloud cover, shade and the time of day alter reflections and the apparent brightness of the pool.
Paving, coping, planting, fencing and nearby buildings contribute reflected colour around and across the water.
The position of the viewer, screen settings and photographic exposure can all change how a reference image appears.
Start with the base colour and speckle you prefer, then compare the completed-pool references in similar light and surroundings. Pool shape, depth and the balance of shallow and deep areas also influence the overall impression.
Viewing a physical sample is recommended before making the final selection. Sand Speckle should remain marked as a digital proof until its physical sample is confirmed.
Project pages provide more examples across pool types, locations and finishes. The resurfacing guide explains how the selected colour sits over the pool-specific preparation, repairs and reinforced lining.
