The angle from which you shot may likely be the only one open to you but outstanding, nonetheless. It's interesting how the water actually looks higher on the right side of the breakwater, and the waves over there contrast so much with the smoother eddies on the left. The landward structures aren't fully identifiable but that works, they simply being seen as structures, clustered along the shore, are another great contrast with the singular, crisply-focussed, and prominent lighthouse. Your pano treatment makes everything here subservient to the lighthouse. A sure "winner" in the B&W Challenge. I spotted it in the "Image Approval" list and found that humorous... that it should require approval. Who wouldn't approve of it as a submission?

A nice and well composed panorama shot showing the lighthouse as well as the entrance into the Mersey river and the scene across on the Liverpool side.

A lovely B&W panorama that would be great in the B&W challenge. Nicely done.

Good morning Steve (it must be after 10 a.m.)

This is one of your best panos from "glorious New Brighton." Nik pointed out most the finer qualities and I echo his observations. Fantastico!

What a glorious image, and super wide presentation. tigs=^..^=

That's a doozie, Steve. I always love seeing that lighthouse. Well done.

Fantastic pano showing us so many wonderful things to take in.

Delighted to add this top notch beauty to the BWC :)
