Liverpool's Anglican Cathedral. I'm always amazed at the way it dominates the skyline.

Windsor Road? One of my "frequent flyers"! Will post a couple of cathedral pics later. I did my mum a Boots photobook for Xmas of shots inside and outside the Anglican. Great stuff!

Always annoys me though that once you get to within a mile of it, from many angles there are no signposts to it and it can't be seen!

Thats a different angle than what i normally see it and cannot think where you are stood!! Usual viewpoints are from the dock rd or parli street so next time out i will have to investigate!!

These are some of my favorite pics from the last few years! All are taken from phones as i don't own a proper camera!! They might not be of the best quality but they all capture the moment perfectly,

Don't know why this isn't bigger but my Grandma in law holding a tupperware tub! She's 100 in 6 weeks!!

My gorgeous niece just messing around but I think the pics a cracker!

And last but not least my younger sis in law with our niece and nephew!

I've always been disappointed by the Anglican Cathedral, it's such an heavy brute of a building... cathedrals should soar and be inspirational. [Compare it to the RC one.... which is even better on the inside on a sunny day...]
I believe George Gilbert-Scott got the external mass and heaviness of the masonry completely out of proportion

it certainly soars acoustically, and the interior is awe inspiring.

That's true but the outside should be inspirational too....
