January 15th 2010 - Lark Lane Chippy

Lark Lane in Aigburth has long been considered the haunt of artists, musicians, students and bohemians. 'The Lane' also has a true and long standing sense of community spirit, as I witnessed today when I was out and about with my camera and spotted this scene. The man from the local chip shop brought an order out for a passing customer and stopped to pass the time of day. There has always been a slower pace of life in Lark Lane.

January 13th 2010 - Everton Water Tower

Awoke to yet another fresh blanket of snow in Liverpool. Took this black and white image of the Grade 2 listed Water Tower on Everton Brow. Great views of the city from the top of the Brow (not today though - far too misty). I like the juxtaposition of the old and the new buildings in this scene and the fact that something as standard as a water tower is built in such an impressive and imposing style, with great attention to architectural detail.
