Cold afternoon in Liverpool

I finally got over to see the "Weeping Window" display in Liverpool today. The quid pro quo to taking the camera was Mrs wanted to go to Liverpool 1. I'm glad she did.
Whilst she was shopping I wanted to get some shots of the steps to Chevasse Park as I liked the strong lines. I got s surprise when I saw some lads practicing Parkour.

C&C welcome.

Saw this guy sitting all by himself in the midst of all the shoppers. Tempted to convert it to B&W in the light of the recent discussion on street photography!

Been doing some more editing Father?

Yeah. Strange, they've gone from my Photobucket account, too.
I'm just about to upload them again.

Try again.

Ah - that's better! Really like the first one (B&W) and the poppy one. Saw these in their entirety when they were at the Tower of London in 2014 - amazing sight.

Those poppies are wonderful.

Thanks guys.
I would have liked more time with the young lads there, but "security" moved them on.
I took quite a few shots of the poppies, but that was the only one I was really happy with.

These are great Ted, excellent urban documentary/street photography style. You have good reactions to grab the action shots at just the right moment.

6 really is quite majestic... lovely (dusk?) crossover light... number 1 is very well spotted too...

In total agreement.

Best regards

Thanks David, that means a lot, coming from you.

Bill: Yes, it was dusk. The ones I took earlier in the afternoon came to nothing. The light was too flat. I deliberately waited around until dusk to see what I could get.
