The Highfields Lion, Nottingham, Nottinghamshire










This splendid-looking fellow is one of two stone lions given to Highfield Park, Nottingham by it`s sister city of Ningbo, China.

I understand that a statue of Robin Hood was donated by Nottingham in return. 

I`m pleased with the way this photo turned out, I like the juxtaposition (is that the word I`m looking for ?) between the  obviously oriental statue and the recognisable English trees in the background.

I`d like to say I planned it that way, but in truth it just turned out that way.
