This is The Liverpool Waterfront. The three main buildings are collectively known as "The Three Graces". They are from left to right; The Royal Liver Building, The Cunard Building and The Port of Liverpool Building. The whole area has been designated as a World Heritage Site.

The very large building in the background on the right of the picture is Liverpool Anglican Cathedral. As a measure of how big it is, it is well over a mile away from the waterfront!!

I can never see or hear the word "Liverpool" without thinking about the Beatles. When I was a kid, I thought it was just some hicktown in England. I can see I was wrong. Very nice shot, Steve.

Gorgeous image of these interesting buildings! That sure is a big one if he's so far away and still stands well above the others.
