Things are looking bright on photo share website

Sep 1 2008 by Laura Sharpe, Liverpool Daily Post

THE Liverpool Daily Post’s photosharing site has been bombarded during this week’s cultural events.

The World Firefighter Games proved a photographers’ paradise with plenty of street action and outdoor challenges.

Cassini2008 has captured the colour and gusto of a marching band while the band members take a break.

Some keen snappers have turned their lens upwards and outwards, capturing the city from a different angle altogether.

Costa Coffee’s new shop at Liverpool One provides the colour and skyward perspective for hoohaaa.

The picture shows the flamboyant tubular piping on the exterior in an exciting and fast-paced way.

Chasmcn has headed outside the city walls and caught a dramatic summer sunset.

Antony Gormley’s figures look lost without the tide and overshadowed by the turbines in the background.

More than 7,000 photographs have been posted on the gallery, which is chronicling your creative interpretations of 2008 – from the main stage to the sidelines of Liverpool’s Culture Year.

Superlambananas and cityscapes still make a strong showing, and the changing face of Liverpool has been documented in acute detail.
