Sea Odyssey: A giant spectacle – final day

What can I say? Better than La Machine would sum it up. The biggest, craziest, best event I’ve ever photographed. Huge crowds everywhere. Every building, museum, street, and the entire waterfront filled from Kings Dock to Princes Dock. I felt

Sea Odyssey: A giant spectacle – Day 2

Wow! What a 2nd day. Stanley Park filled with people as the Uncle awoke and walked through Aintree, Everton and then the city. Crowds lined street after street, including rooftops. People hung out of bedroom windows and best of all

Derby Feste
