Mersey magic


Friday 25 August 06

It was such a lovely evening that I couldn't resist snapping the sun setting over the Mersey as I left the Hello Sailor opening event at the Maritime Museum yesterday...

Then on my way to the ferry this morning I caught the sun rising over the city and as I had the camera with me still...

And just to make everyone who was stuck in traffic this morning thoroughly jealous, here's a photo of my hectic morning commute into work (you can just see a little Mersey Ferry on its way across the river on the right!)
