Ramping Up…

Liverpool waterfront, taken from the Wirral, HDR, black and white

It’s been a while since I’ve posted any pictures of the waterfront so I thought that whilst I was on the Wirral I’d take a new one – I actually thought I’d managed to get a shot of the skyline without a crane in sight but closer observation of the full size pic reveals two!  I suppose it’s a sign that the city is still growing despite difficult economic times and as such is a good thing – it’d be nice to get just *one* pic without any in though!


Nautica, Hoylake

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.


West Kirby Walk II

Another shot from West Kirby, taken on a typically blowy autumn day.  It’s a great place to go to blow the cobwebs away.



Dairy Ice Cream Sundaes – New Brighton Waterfront

Ice cream van on the front at New Brighton.  Wanted to go for a retro type feel here – bit of a difference after the Noble posts but there’s just something about this shot I like?

Noble M12 GTO on the front at New Brighton, Wirral.  Spotted this on Saturday afternoon and couldn’t pass up the opportunity.
