FIVE PICTURE FRIDAY! - Liverpool

Architecture and history along the River Mersey.

Taken November 4, 2024

Liverpool is England’s 4th largest city by population, set along the Mersey river at the edge of the Irish Sea. Reminiscent of Boston or Philadelphia, it’s a working class city, a sports town, and very much a port. Home to countless shipyards and the start of a million voyages, the waterfront exudes history and English dampness. Yet it offers a pleasant contradiction, with modern buildings mixing with Victorian, Georgian, and even medieval structures to create a unique architectural mosaic.

About “Five Picture Friday”

Every other Friday, I produce a short photo-essay on an interesting location. I try to capture the essence of the place, distilled down into a few images. It’s a fun way to practice my photography, and I hope you enjoy a little armchair travel!
