The modern waterfront

1st Nov 2011. The modern Liverpool waterfront with the Museum of Liverpool on the left, the 3 Graces in the middle and the new black granite buildings at Mann Island on the right. Things sure have changed. 8th Dec 2006.

Lady Lever Art Gallery

The Lady Lever Art Gallery in Port Sunlight is a stunning building. If you’re in the area you should pay it a visit.

  Another HDR for the new book.      

The old view over Canning Dock

12th September, 2006. Remember this view? The old Walk the Plank ship, now gone. A great view of the Liver Building and the Port of Liverpool building with a clear view out to sunset. Its all so different now. This

Cwm Idwal

  I think its been about 2 weeks since I last posted. Sorry about that. I’ve been incredibly busy writing the new HDR book, sorting The Print Aid Project, working on Rezz and doing commercial work in between. Its good

Hays Galleria in London

I’m off to London tomorrow to get some photos for the HDR book, hopefully. The weather isn’t looking fantastic.

Inside an old airplane

On Saturday we were lucky enough to have a tour inside an old plane. There’s a group in Liverpool who spend their free time restoring them. Really fascinating stuff. The plane we were in had its tail rudder ripped off

The Sage in Gateshead

  Apologies for not blogging over the past few days. I’ve been working on a project for Look11 which I launched yesterday. Its been a crazy few days and I’m still trying to sort the website for it. As soon

Gateshead Millenium Bridge

Had a trip up north yesterday for some interior and architecture photography. Never been to Newcastle but I’ve always wanted to go and see this bridge for myself. We didn’t see that much of the city but what we saw

Lonely bench

An empty lonely park bench on a chilly night in Sefton Park. Although it doesn’t look like it I did use HDR here. 7 exposures bracketed, merged and then adjusted in Lightroom. Why use HDR if it doesn’t look like

Moon over the Metropolitan Cathedral

The moon rises over the Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral. Also there’s a good photography contest with 2 days left for entry running at the moment. Its to help out a local charity so please enter on the Photos for Fairbridge site.

Inside St Georges Hall

Something I’ve been asking myself recently is “If I take the makeup off my photos are they still good?” So here’s one. This was it over 18 months ago. HDR processed to retain detail and then processed in Lightroom. This

Sacre-Coeur in Montmartre

Amazingly I had never heard of Sacre-Coeur before. My view of Paris, despite loving both Amelie and Angel-a, was quite narrow. They’re some of my favourite films but I try not to watch them so when my girlfriend pointed out

Nantes

Before visiting Paris we visited Nantes, which is filled with random bits of greatness. If you want to see more I’ve opened the Nantes gallery on my portfolio site.
