This is The Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ The King or put more simply, Liverpool Catholic Cathedral. This image (and the next) are for LynEve who worked on this cathedral when it was being built. It is affectionately known as "Paddy's Wigwam" and "The Mersey Funnel".

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

The funnel looks like Lyn's handiwork :) Good angle in this shot Bruce.

After it was built (from 1962 until 1967) is was, with respect to its design and architecture, far ahead of its time.

Your fine image shows this clearly as well.

Fine work Steve!

Regards, Cornelius.

Oh this is so lovely Steve - both will be saved and treasured.I love the way you have shown the exterior and the gorgeous stained-glass work.

LOL at the comments above. Mere office workers do count as well, and I did spend most Saturday mornings on site - watching it grow.
Never saw it completed before I left but have since - I think it is a wonderful piece of architecture.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
