Which came first ..The chicken or the egg ?
I can't think of a better title but when looking at shots that I took of my city of Nottingham I once again remembered what I considered a case of inverted snobbery. I reminded Jonathan who does not take my side in this saying "it’s tough but you can't win so drop it " No support there then. I was born in Sneinton a suburb of Nottingham and attended Secondary school in the heart of Sneinton and when married lived on Windmill lane a two minute walk from Greens Windmill and all the four children I had were born in the house on Windmill lane which is THE very heart of Sneinton. I just did another check of the boundary map and just as I was informed by this eclectic group my present house is literally a cul de sac ( just to make this clear) on the wrong side of a boundary road. There is a group that make up The Sneinton Artists Quarter that have markets and stalls and events to market their various Arts. I print and frame my own photo's and asked to join this group. I was turned down flat as I live mere metres away on the wrong side of the street now :( Some times I am proud of where I was born and where all my mothers side of the family hailed from...I feel like the egg which was kicked out of the nest by a cuckoo lol...I know I am mixing metaphors but ' hey, I am accepted on Flickr and know my friends don't make distinctions like that ..Sue :)
Btw, you may find my use of a macro lens here odd...but it is still a prime lens and I like that length occasionally as it covers different options when I go into town...
