Lace Market Juxtaposition

I took this photo for the juxtaposition between the modern lines of the Nottingham Contemporary Art Gallery and the The Unitarian Church, now the Pitcher and Piano pub.

Both are set in Nottingham's historic Lace Market . If you look carefully at the Art Gallery facade you can see Nottingham Lace patterns

@brigette thank you brigette :)

Yes I see the lace patterns. We visited Nottingham about 20 years ago, and enjoyed the lace museum

A great photo and fantastic lace patterns (they deserve a close up on their own :-))

That's a nice contrast Phil, ancient and modern. Black and white works well in it, the Nottingham lace pattern is lovely on the facade

[Rob Z]

Such a difference...

[Peter Dulis]

Nice in monochrome

[Mags]

Beautiful black and white image, and interesting contrasts between the two buildings.

Nice capture of the architectural contrast

Pity a church like this has finished up as a pub. Once in Scotland we stayed for a few days near Lock Lommond and went for a dinner we had booked by phone. It was a chapel complete with altar. There were no diners except us who were four in all. It was so weird and cold. Having said that you got a great capture of the church and it looks great in b&w..

Nice juxtaposition of old and new, works well in mono

[Carole Sandford]

Oh yes I see the lace patterns, very clever!

[Renee Salamon]

Lovely architectural shot - and love the detail. Church now a pub???
