Park Gates 2

My second picture in a mini series of Mobile Phone pictures of the entrances to Vernon Park, Basford, Nottingham .... hence the title Park Gates 2

Vernon Park is a municipal park, an oasis of green in an inner city urban environment.

This is entrance is on a busy main road.

Yesterday I had a conversation with the man walking across the frame....no such exciting chat with the man who can be seen walking down the pavement

[Judith Greenwood]

He can't even keep his trousers up let alone have conversation. Like this angle on the gate though.

[Pat Knowles]

That guy looks a very odd shape don't you think...what has he got on his head?
I really like this angle of your gates , beautifully arranged with the railings & lovely stonework!

[Meg]

love the gates in b and w...the guy needs to pull his pants up... tee hee

[Judith Johnson]

I love the tones and textures. Looks great in b& w.

[Phil Howcroft]

@happypat thanks Pat, he's tilted his head to the side to avoid the overhanging branches from the Park

@judithg thanks Judith.....good spot with the trousers ...although if I had a conversation with him I don't think it would be much different than the one I had with the man with the bag yesterday !

@happypat @judithg BTW ...yesterdays picture .....window grills for security ..i think the house is empty

[Phil Howcroft]

@megmills thanks Meg .....low hanging pants seem to be the fashion style of choice for some of our community .....not a style to be recommended though !!!

[Phil Howcroft]

@busylady thanks Judith...not bad for a mobile phone shot :) ...albeit the post processing was done on a computer :)

[Pat Knowles]

Very attractive grills I must say....quite impressed but the house must have been for sale a while then....looks a nice area too unless the have rave up parties all night!! Looks like they lock the gates at night too

[Kerri]

Great b&w

[Maggiemae]

@judithg I like what Judith says, makes me smile! The stone work on the wall is lovely to see plus the gates!

[Phil Howcroft]

@happypat ha ha Pat...as for a nice area...wait for park gates 3 before you jump to conclusions

[Pat Knowles]

@phil_howcroft Righto !!

[Allison Williams]

Lovely. BTW, I did hear the call for Nottingham at the central bus terminal at Heathrow when I was preparing to travel to Oxford. I wish I had time to see and do all the things I want to while I am here.

[Sue Wilde]

I do so love the angle on these gates

[🐓 Patricia Fletcher]

Love this monochrome image, the gates deserve this shot.

[Jennifer C]

great POV and processing Phil!

[Sue]

I like your pov Phil ... fabulous b&w! I don't know how they walk with those low pants, almost a duck waddle most of the time, haha
