Calm
I took this photo at Hoylake a couple of weekends ago – I haven’t been so cold in a long time! I was struggling to get steady shots with a tripod as I was dithering so much – there was a mother and daughter there at the same time trying to get the same shot but with a tiny compact camera – after many attempts and much swearing, they eventually gave in. I like the dampening effect that fog has on the surrounding area – it was so quiet it was eerie. Bitterly, bitterly cold day.
New Brighton Noble III

Last of the Noble, for now. I thought I’d go for colour to break up the moody black & white.
John Nelson Limited – Hockenhall Alley, Liverpool

I’ve no idea who or what this company was – found this door and sign in Hockenhall Alley off Dale Street.
Football is a simple game…

…based on the giving and taking of passes, of controlling the ball and of making yourself available to receive a pass. It is terribly simple.” – one of my favourite Shankly quotes. I’ve been meaning to get down to Anfield for a while but the weather hasn’t been up to any kind of photography recently. More Shanks quotes here.
