There’s something iconic about washing lines. It maybe all those cartoons I’ve watched with the characters sat in a pair of underpants, or dragging a line of washing along the road, it always makes me laugh.
There’s just something that draws the writers to them. It probably goes back to [...]

This is one of the breathing towers for the Kingsway Mersey Tunnel. It’s a very imposing building on the skyline looking over to Liverpool where you can see it’s sister.
Although it’s not the prettiest structure in the world it still has it’s own charm. You can walk right underneath [...]

This is actually the closet I have ever been to a giraffe, and close up they look even bigger.  It was taken at Pont Scorff Zoo in Brittany, France. They’re one of my favorite animals so I really enjoyed being on the viewing platform and getting so close.

This is one of those photos that I’ve found in the depths of my computer and thought, I completely forgot I took this shot!

This has got to be one of my all time favourite photographs (of mine), I love finding a chance to take a photo slightly differently and although on it’s own Albert Dock (in Liverpool) is a very interesting and historic subject I thought it’s reflection would look just as [...]

We went to Conwy in Snowdonia, Wales yesterday, it was a bitterly cold day although it was sunny (at times), and there was snow on the mountain tops. So there were some wonderful views of the mountains.

I’m off on my themes again. Following on from last week here is another photograph I have took of the Royal Liver Buildings. Again from the Mersey Ferry which I think gives you one of the best views of the building.

This week in image of the week (week 13 lucky for some!):
This was taken with my usual Traveler DC-5080 in late afternoon, on a very windy day.
I had just walked through a lovely piece of untouched wind blown sand and thought I would take a photo of it with the sun in the background.
