Interesting day in Liverpool. The purpose of the visit was to see the John Moores Painting Exhibition. However, we took a walk through the city centre. I’m never really sure what to make of such places. In Liverpool’s case there is a modern shopping centre known as Liverpool One. All flash a fluff. In the streets around told a different story. Small cheap tents pitched in the doorways of abandoned shops. Unaccompanied tatty sleeping bags in the shop doors opposite. Not quite the story that Liverpool would want to tell. I thought about capturing a few images but I didn’t see the point.

The John Moores exhibition was much the same as the others I have seen over the years. Most of the work isn’t worth the time or effort to connect with. Then there are some gems. I guess which are which is down to personal choice. Such is life.
