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

Return Of The Big Cat
Here's a shot of the emblem of Jaguar cars. It's probably one of the most recognisable of all the car badges, besides that of the Flying Lady, which of course belongs to Rolls Royce.
Sadly the new Jaguar models don't include this on the bonnets anymore, due to the dreaded health and safety jobsworths who say that they are dangerous. It's a shame, as it really adds to the character of a car. Fortunately the vintage and veteran cars are allowed to retain theirs, which is great, as there are some really lovely ones that I have seen at classic car shows.
