Architectural Curves #1…
I’ve been trying to get some people-free shots of the central staircase at the Museum of Liverpool since it opened and finally managed it.
The Dome, Liverpool Town Hall…
Architect: John Wood of Bath, 1749 - 1755
Underpass, Waterloo, London…
Mersey Docks & Harbour Board Building, Liverpool…
Architects: Briggs & Wolstenholm and Hobbs & Thornely - 1903-07
Beautiful evening light gives the building the appearance of being floodlit.
St. George’s Hall, Liverpool…
Architects: Harvey Lonsdale Elmes (1841-1854); Elmes died in 1847 after which the construction & interior work was supervised by Robert Rawlinson & Corporation Surveyor John Weightman. From 1849 C R Cockerill was invited to given advice and was subsequently appointed architect in 1851. It was Cockerill who was responsible for the magnificent Minton-tiled floor seen in the topmost image.
The floor is usually preserved under floorboards to prevent erosion of the delicate pattern. However, once or twice a year the floor is uncovered for a week for viewing.
The detail image shows one of the opulently adorned doors fashioned in a Classical Greek style.

A First Look at Lightroom 5
Edited with Lightroom 5 Beta using the new (and excellent) Upright tool, which does away with converging verticals with a single click. From what I’ve found thus far, LR5 is looking pretty good.
Le Cloître, Cathédrale de Cahors, France…
