    Default Son et Lumiere at St Georges Hall










    The Son et Lumière light show at St Georges Hall was fantastic. Sure it rained, and my 10mm lens wasn’t wide enough to get the entire building in but it was brilliant to watch. They’ve got music, a voice over and even video footage mixed into the display. Its running till Sunday so I’d go check it out if I were you. These images also mark my passing of 20,000 on my 30D.

    It sure does, if you can get wide enough. I think I'd need an 8mm fish eye on a full frame camera to properly get it all.

    Even without getting It all, the power of Sony will make mine godlike.

    How much Is It to watch this farce of a light show?

    The Liverpool 08 show doesn't say a price.

    It does say that its sold out, and tonight is the last night. I thought it was really good. I love it when people play with buildings in new ways.

    The Advertising for this and the St Georges reopening was terrible though.

    I only found out the events were 7 days because of going on here. I thought It was all just a day event until I saw your pics.

    The Light show looks the same as the new years fireworks event In January yet that was free and going to the St Georges Hall was free too.

    Going to the hall again anyway, most of my pics are too fuzzy because of all the muscle shaking I had.

    Art in Liverpool is one of the best resources for these things. The light show was a hell of a lot better than the one at "New Years", on the 5th That was just colours on the building. This had movies, sound, animation, the blitz. Very well done.

    I'm just bitter that I won't be able to take pics of It now and It's a once In a life time thing being It 800 years of whatever.

    They put going Into the Hall free but the light show Isn't.

    There was no outdoor advertising outside the city centre, not everyone checks websites or knows about certain sites.

    True, Max.

    I only really get my local news from BBC TV, and I didn't know much more than Charles was there on the 23rd.
    I knew nothing about the light show (and they said nothing about the fireworks at Beetham West).

    My own fault, I suppose, for not buying the Echo, and not listening to Local Radio.

    Thanks, Kev & yoliverpool, because I can read a lot of news here.

    Excellent photos, Pete.
    Thank you.

    I live 5 minutes from the Georges Hall and was sitting on the big steps on the day I went in..
    I knew nothing of the open day but asked a few people what was going on and thats how I found out..
