I got invited to Chester zoo to step inside some enclosures to feed and also take photos of the animals. Had a great day and decided to use a lens which I wouldn’t normally use for this kind of thing but I was pleasantly surprised.

Alternative pictures of Beatles locations.

To celebrate @paulmccartney’s new album “The Boys of Dungeon Lane” I thought I’d share some alternative views of Liverpool mainly Speke as I was focusing on early places in the lives of The Beatles.

1. The new road sign at Dungeon Lane. (A kid had turned up with his new bass & bag a gift for his birthday to pose with the sign)

2. Approach to Upton Green, Speke.

3. Entrance to 25 Upton Green, Speke. Childhood home of George Harrison

4. The bus stop in Speke where Paul & George would catch the bus from to school.

5. Speke, Liverpool.

6-7. View from 12 Ardwick Road, the second Speke address Paul lived at as a child.

8. View from 72 Western Avenue, the first McCartney family residence in Speke.

9-11. Houses opposite McCartney’s & Harrison’s school (Liverpool Institute High School for Boys) & also John Lennon’s art school.

12. Houses just off Penny Lane.

13-14. The back garden and front window of 20 Forthlin Road Allerton labelled “the birthplace of The Beatles” and a McCartney Family home.

Technically I know this isn’t Liverpool but I’m a Liverpool photographer and feel very proud to represent the north in such a competition.
