Description
Water lilies in the Lily Pond at Balboa Park. The Botanical Building is in the background. The Lily Pond (along with the Lagoon and the Botanical Building) was built for the 1915-1916 Panama-California Exposition. Along with the Lagoon and Botanical Building, the Lily Pond is one of the most photographed and iconic parts of Balboa Park. The Botanical Building is one of the largest lath structures in the world and is home to over 2,100 different plants. This image is part of the North County Times negatives, an extensive collection of photography documenting North San Diego County, and California and Mexico, from the 1960s to early 2000s. The negatives were shot by Daniel Flores Rios, a photographer for the North County Times. Mr. Flores had standing orders to capture the news, culture, and daily life of north county San Diegans. He was a prolific photographer, capturing over 40,000 events and subjects comprising an estimated 150,000+ individual images. A fraction of these were used for publication in the Times. Mr. Rios donated the copyright for his photographs to California State University, San Marcos. This collection of negatives is possibly the single most comprehensive image documentation of North San Diego County during the time frame of its creation.
