Liverpool is being billed as the city of light with dozens of buildings being illuminated, but I have noticed that every time I go into town at night, some of our best buildings are poorly/not illuminated. St Georges Hall, Anglican Cathedral and St Lukes are just a few examples.

I know for a fact that these all have great lighting, especially St Georges Hall, but it never seems to be used. It just seems a waste to spend thousands on lighting for it not to be used and in means that during the night time they are barely noticable.

Does anyone know why this is?

I find white lights are best for night pics.

Dunno why St George ain't lit up enough, the Entrance Is.

Does anyone know why this is? Cost of power maybe ????

Does anyone else think that Liverpool's waterfront could be alot more lit up than it is? I look at places like shanghai during the night time and it is amazing with virtually every building lit in some way. I think Liverpool should do the same. Anyone else think so?

Everything from what i have read, is running a little late, but a date of September has been floated around for improvements to the waterfront lighting, with some of the latest technology, such as laser and led.
check my canal thread for a mention and link to when it was first talked about.

so, yes the lighting will improve, when *lol* well? :rolleyes:
