History on a Wall. Crosby Merseyside.

History on a Wall. Crosby Merseyside.

By their very nature, modern storage and warehousing facilities tend to be functional, and at best, a bit bland. This is an exception to the rule. As you look at the mural a window into the Edwardian past of Crosby is opened, featuring the Liverpool Overhead Railway, sand dunes, beach scenes, a vintage tram and a Liver Bird plus other local views. Not a bit bland.

Starling at Crosby

Starling at Crosby

The ubiquitous Starling is probably not the most popular bird here, but when looked at more closely, they do have beautiful plumage and are natural comics and mimic sounds. We used to have one who visited the garden and had mastered a near perfect phone ring. In vast numbers they provide a stunning view, sweeping at sunset to roost. Taken on Monday 17th March 2014 at Crosby, gazing up at me as I stepped out of the car.

Iron Man facing the tide at Crosby

Iron Man facing the tide at Crosby

I took this on 17th March 2014 not really expecting the tide to be so high. A walk on the beach was impossible but I did notice one of the Iron Men stoic in his resolve to face the waves of the incoming tide and the way the water was swirling around him. I attached my 70-300 lens and took three shots, before retreating from the biting wind. This one pleased me the most.

Iron Man

Iron Man

One of the "Other Place" Iron Men on Crosby Beach looking out over the Irish Sea. I chose to make the background (Liverpool docks in the distance) monochrome. There are 100 of these fine Iron Men on the beach and they have made it all rather a special place.
