Completed in 1929, Nottingham's Neo-Baroque Council house dominates the UK's largest Market Square. The Ferris wheel is erected annually in November until New Year
Dating to 1670, the existing Palace is still known as Nottingham Castle. It replaced the original medieval structure, which was slighted after the Civil Wars for being a Royalist Stronghold. The current palace was itself gutted by fire during the Reform Act Riots of 1831, and transformed into the City's Art Gallery soon afterwards. It has recently reopened after a major renovation with interactive exhibitions about Robin Hood and the City's rebellious past.
The view towards High Pavement from the church yard of St. Mary's in the Lace Market. The church, just in frame on the left is the third to occupy the site, and has stood here since the late 14th Century. It is Nottingham's largest mediaeval structure.
Interesting doorway to computer repairs shop in the middle of Nottingham. Very interesting and informative shuttered doorway to shop, closed for the evening. For ‘Thursday Doors Day’.
A view towards Nottingham's Lacemarket and the Church of St Marys (Square Tower) which dates to at least 1390. It is Nottingham's Oldest church and the largest apart from the Catholic Cathedral. The church with a spire to the left dates to the 19th Century and is now a public house, The Pitcher and Piano.

... which I photographed towards sunset. The snow had melted somewhat, though the paths were icy in patches. All Saints' Church is in the distance.

I shot this image handheld during a very quiet moment on a Saturday evening at Nottingham Midland railway station. I focused on the windows at the far end of the image and allowed the side windows to become progressively out of focus closest to the camera. I was using a 50mm f1.4 lens on my Canon 6D, but for some reason I shot it at f1.8. Nevertheless, I still had a shutter speed of 1/125th of a second, which was more than adequate to obtain a sharp image.
It wasn't too long ago that the only street entertainer in Nottingham was a guy called Frank who played the xylophone really badly (albeit he was a local celebrity and now has his own memorial plaque in the City). Now we have a plethora of people but today was the first time I've come across the banjo in a while. Takes me back to afternoon matinees with my nan watching George Formby, it was terrible but I smiled like a good grandson should. This guy was actually really good although just like the bagpipes there is only so much of this particular instrument I can consume in a short period of time. Fair play to him though, he was entertaining.
Resisted the temptation to monochrome this one. I've added grain and spent a little time giving this bit of a 'photo processed' feel in Lightroom.
