A new exhibition surrounding the work of 'The Photie Man' is set to open to the public in Liverpool this weekend.
Offering a fascinating snapshot of Liverpool life during the 80s and 90s, photographer Tom Wood spent 25 years capturing characters on the streets of Merseyside. Born in Ireland, Tom, now in his 70s, moved to Merseyside in 1978 and lived here until 2003.
But it was during this time he earned the nickname "Photie Man," as he spent his time photographing people and places across the region. Today, the ECHO got a first look at the new exhibition - Photie Man: 50 Years of Tom Wood - at the Walker Art Gallery.
