Nottinghamshire - Photography Week 21 (2016)

Taking a break from the Cornwall coast, I visited a number of familiar locations around Nottingham.

Dorket Head

The valley between Dorket Head and Woodborough has provided a number of excellent images over the years. This is one of my favourite views:



Crop rotation means there is always something different to capture. This year's crop is wheat:





Wildflowers near Calverton

These are a few of the wildflowers captured on the reclaimed spoil heap near Calverton:

Common Vetch:




Bird's Foot Trefoil


White Campion



Forget-me-not




Stitchwort on the path near Dorket Head





Not totally sure but I think this flower might be 'Honesty'



Church/Rock Cemetery

There is plenty of Victorian architecture in the city of Nottingham including Rock Cemetery. It is built on a sandstone hill and is renowned for a number of caves and some striking gravestones and statues (1)
