The church in the centre of the picture is The Church of Our Lady and Saint Nicholas, affectionately known as St Nick's. It is the parish church of Liverpool and is situated down on the waterfront (the building on the right of the picture is The Liver Building).

The building work being carried out in front of the church is the long awaited Leeds-Liverpool Canal Extension. This is a scheme to connect the Leeds-Liverpool Canal to the docks via The Pier Head.

Nice picture of the church and the other building. Lots of color here. Good work, again, Steve.

I guess it's not the same as Harvey Nicks, but that's another kind of place of worship in the age we live in. Always surprising to see the clash of old and new isn't it. I am always struck by the idea that lots of the old churches in our cities started life surrounded by fields in the middle of the countryside. Your shot really brings that mixed history out.

A lovely clear shot Steve. I love this church - the Sailors church. How many changes this site must have seen on the waterfront over the past 750 years.

The past, present and future are all in this one of St. Nicks. Hope Scrooge doesn't spoil the party. Colors and clarity are stupendous.

So much going on in this image... the old with the new on the waterfront. I wonder how much Liverpool has changed since the Beatles in the 60's...
