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

Up For Sale
This former vicarage directly opposite the castle is now up for sale. It's asking price, £1.2 million. If I had the money, I would snap it up, as it's a huge property, full of character, with a great garden and fantastic views across the city. And also it wouldn't be too far to travel to work. I expect some property developer will buy it and turn it in to luxury flats. I just hope they won't spoil it too much.
The Headbanger theme this week courtesy of Lammy is 'harvest'. Certainly one for my thinking cap, as I live in a town, and miles away from any fields. Of course there's plenty of scope for interpretation, I took some photos of a stall selling fruit and veg yesterday, but wasn't too happy with the results. So dipping in my archive, I came across this freshly cultivated field of straw, where the farmer had created these giant round bales.
Don't forget to visit the rest of the gang's sites, to see what they have come up with.

GM: I'm sure Lammy will appreciate the spelling. LOL
ReplyDeleteI love the header with the great rolled hay bales.
Oh, I don't mind the spelling. I got over spelling my name right eons ago. (oh wait, maybe I shouldn't let on that I'm that old!)Before I was married my intials were L.A.M.B. and my mom called me Lammy many times, but she was the only one so the family nickname of Lanny is the one that stuck. And besides, Dirt, Bet and I raise sheep and lammies are certainly some of my favorites!
ReplyDeleteWow, big bales. I am more familiar with round bales for hay - feeding. I had no idea they did them up for straw, but I suppose that big huge loafing sheds could sure use up a nice round bale in a hurry. Thanks for such a stunning shot for "my" week!
First, your header is so cool! Second, I want that castle!!
ReplyDeleteYou've rolled out a good header there Chris.
