One of the privileges of being a councillor in Nottingham City is working in the fine building that is Nottingham Council House. I took my camera in today to take pictures of the Christmas lights (which are really good this year – more later!)

While I was there with my compact digital camera and my tripod, I took a series of photos of the statue of Ghandi which sits under the stairs opposite the ballroom.

It’s a great statue, and one of my favourite features of the Council House.
