Last night was great. The launch party for Shoot Liverpool (http://www.shootexperience.com/events/info/8) was really fun. It was cool to see some familiar faces from other events around Liverpool. However it was bloody hard getting a shot of someone pointing at our photos because they were always next to really good photos. Pah! Still, with careful positioning we managed to get some photos. It was a really nice night and I can now add “exhibited at Open Eye” to my CV. I also liked seeing some of the Shoot Toronto photos there. They had shots from the lake front and from Dundas Square. Pretty cool. Afterwards we went to Crosby beach to find the Gorlmey Statues. I was trying to find a spot that didn’t require a hike and I did. Handy for future reference. The sky was amazing, but the sun was stuck behind clouds so there was no real light. I got this one shot. I only took this one shot because I was wearing my new pants and I didn’t fancy ruining them in the mud. Still, I know where it is now so I can revisit it. Its a great spot as you can see Liverpool, all along the top of Wirral and all of North Wales. Lastly, if anyone speaks Italian, do you know what this article says? (http://www.vanilladays.com/images/ohnojohn.jpg). The short story is that I took a photo of this sticker in Liverpool (http://www.vanilladays.com/gallery/2006/03/oh-no-john/) and its apparently this large viral marketing thing by a guy in Florence. Its been in all the papers there and I’m being called a famous BBC photographer. Funny old world.

That is awesome. I wish to be able to take photos like that one day!

So... was there any post processing in this photo? Apologies if it sounds like I'm trying to steal your "tricks" (or talent more like) but I'm curious as to how the clouds and rays come through the clouds like that.

I used HDR (http://www.vanilladays.com/hdr-guide). It brings out all extra detail in the sky.
