In Camera ... Mann Island, Liverpool


The new Mann Island development near the new Museum of Liverpool may not be to everyone's taste, being a very modern block of black glass amongst the heritage buildings but the glass frontage does produce some interesting reflections and light patterns.

In Camera ... Approaching Bad Weather

A lone iron man stands surrounded by the sea at high tide, weak sunlight glimmers off the rough waters as a band of dark cloud gathers on the horizon; a warning of a frontal system with heavy rain on the way.
Down at Crosby beach last night, it was high tide just before sunset; but the sun never made the horizon, dark clouds from an approaching frontal system were piling in from the west.

In Camera ... Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral


Out walking around Liverpool last week researching a new photo walk these stained glass panels around the Metropolitan Cathedral caught my eye. The saturated colours were backlit by a weak sun shining through a gap in the clouds and the rest of the image was visually almost monochrome.
