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

Green And Black
As most of you will know, today is St Patrick's Day, the patron saint of Ireland. There's going to be a big parade in the market square today, so I'm hoping to get some good shots of the people and what's being staged. As a flavour, here's one I took last year.
The black of my title naturally refers to Guinness, an alcoholic beverage that will be flowing freely all day long. I tried it once and found it a rather bitter and unpleasant drink, similar to vinegar.
