A photo a day from the famous East Midlands city, its surroundings, and wherever the photographic journey takes me.

"Eyes Down, Look In"
These words are very familiar to those people that play bingo. But these days, this former cinema on Alfreton Road has become a church. So it is at least being used, even though it is looking a bit run down and forlorn.
The building is a great example of art deco architecture, and Nottingham is lucky enough to still have a few left, although they are no longer used as cinemas.

Art Deco once so popular in everything from jewelry to buildings has fallen on hard times. Here, where I live, they are usually torn down and replaced. It is good to see this example of recycling.

And for those who don't play bingo, what is it? 66?
