Liverpool Waterfront

A photo of a man taking a photo of the Queen Mary II when she docked at Liverpool - the big ships are brilliant but do have the effect of minimising the 'Wow!' factor of anything else that visits, including the military ships, due to their sheer size.

This man was engrossed in his phone on a cold and foggy January evening - the building visible on the right third of the shot is the tunnel vent on the other side of the Mersey.

The new ferry terminal at the Pier Head, winner of the
Carbuncle Cup 2009 - it's certainly a building that divides opinion.

The cruise liner Crown Princess visits Liverpool - it's great to see the crowds that come out every time a big ship comes in, the liner terminal has created a lot of interest since it opened.

The Queen Mary II visits Liverpool - by far the largest thing to come since the new liner terminal opened, she made an impressive addition to the waterfront.

Shot from when the QM2 was in town – can’t get enough of the big ships, the cruise liner terminal is one of the best things to have happened to the city in the past few years.
The only problem with this ship was it’s sheer size – everything else that comes in afterwards is going to look like a tiddler in comparison.

Experiment with textures - trying to bring something a bit different to an often photographed scene.
