  • A couple of mixed-race have put their heads through the apertures made in a painting that depicts Prince Albert and Queen Victoria, on the Palace Pier at Brighton, on the south coast of England. The faces peep through this traditional attraction that few can resist, even in the 21st century. The man’s face looks disturbingly incongruous in the place where the Prince Consort’s white German character would be. There is a message here of a changing multi-cultural British society where these friends or partners are from other ethnic backgrounds and where mixed-marriages are now commonplace, as opposed to the Victorian era when attitudes to racism and race-relations were vastly different.

  • Electricity cables stretch into early morning mist above Swanscombe, Kent, London England. In the foreground we see a stack of discs called Insulators which stop the electricity carried in the conductor (the wires strung between each pylon) from jumping to the pylon and then down to earth. The cables disappear into the winter fog creating a Sci-Fi scene of 21st technology. Diagonally, the cables travel across the picture but they are part of a line of 542 pylons that have already crossed 110 miles of English countryside, carrying 40,000 Volts along this network of aluminium cables from Dungeness coal-fired power station to West Ham sub station in London's East End - to power the West End's high supply demands.

  • The outline of electricity cables stretch across a gloomy winter sky in woodland near Wrington, North Somerset England. Diagonally, the cables travel across the picture but they are part of a line of L6 pylons that have already crossed many miles of South-West England's countryside, carrying 40,000 Volts along this network of aluminium cables to power some of Bristol's high supply demands. In the foreground we see the bare boughs and branches of trees creating a Sci-Fi scene of ugly 21st technology versus the beauty of nature. Insatiable appetites for raw power and energy means electricity is now an expensive comodity after climbing oil prices doubled electricity utility bills for some domestic users.

  • As evening light fades, bright light from the electricity-hungry Canary Wharf docklands development is supplied by the voltage from electricity cables and supporting struts at West Ham sub-station, Canning Town, London England. A network of 110 miles of cables have stretched across 542 'L6' pylons across England's Kent countryside, from the coal-fired power station at Dungeness to this location, carrying 40,000 Volts along this network of aluminium cables to power some of London's high supply demands. Insatiable appetites for energy means electricity is now an expensive comodity after climbing oil prices doubled electricity utility bills for some domestic users.

  • Construction workers wearing hard hats hook up a pile of concrete beams on to a waiting crane hook. One man bends down to help loop a chain beneath one of the girders and attached to the dangling hook while another secures the chain and another man is in radio contact with the crane driver out of sight. Importantly, behind their low-loader truck is a Smirnoff advertising billboard with a famous ad campaign for the Vodka distillery. It depicts three carved Polynesian statues of Easter Island but seen through a botttle of the alcoholic beverage, is a representation of a face wearing a head band and MP3 headphones. Seen juxtaposed with the construction men and their building technology this scene describes a visual pun between an ancient lost civilization and the modern age of technology. Smirnoff is a vodka distillery founded in Moscow, by Piotr Arsenieyevich Smirnov. The <br />
brand is now distributed in 130 countries and includes flavored vodka and malt beverages. The Sminoff advertising campaign is said to be based on the Belgian surrealist artist Rene Magritte whose paradoxical images stretched our ideas of what was reality and the fantastic.

  • The modern city of London and the ancient temple Teotihuacan in Mexico. The giant ad for Mexican tourism is a riverside poster opposite 21st Century architecture. The holy city of Teotihuacan ('the place where the gods were created') is situated some 50 km north-east of Mexico City. Built between the 1st and 7th centuries A.D., it is characterized by the vast size of its monuments – in particular, the Temple of Quetzalcoatl and the Pyramids of the Sun and the Moon, laid out on geometric and symbolic principles. The City of London is a city and ceremonial county within London. It constituted most of London from its settlement by the Romans in the 1st century AD to the Middle Ages, but the conurbation has since grown far beyond the City's borders.

  • Preparing to go out on the Surrey Union hunt.

It is generally accepted that the Surrey Union dates back to 1798, and was probably so named following the amalgamation of two private packs belonging to the Leech family of Lea Park, Godalming, and the Rev.

As a visual pun of stripes and straight parallel lines, the eleven and white bars of the zebra crossing can be seen as a coincidence, a street trick.

  • Prices at the pumps in the Jet petrol station, Europe's first completely unleaded forecourt in London in 2001. The detailed picture shows us the amounts we paid for fuel in the early part of the 21st century when the UK's economy was still very prosperous, before the crashes and recessions of the following decade. This forecourt was the first to offer exclusively Unleaded petrol which wasn't then available across the country. Drivers were forced to journey to specially-converted stations far apart. On this day, it cost 36.8p a litre whereas 13 years later it would cost roughly £1 more for the same amount.

  • Clothing hanging on a washing line in a Pimlico housing estate in London. Reflecting a bygone era when the residents of inner-city tenements and housing estates hung out their washing on wash days (usually Mondays in the UK), relying on honesty and the community spirit to ensure their safety. Today we see this rarely apart from courtyards like this in west London. The walls are made fromclassic London stock bricks but the colours of a vibrant 21st century Britain are seen strung along the line.

  • A cheeky young boy climbs over a back yard gate armed with a homemade bow and arrow in a back street in Liverpool, England. His homemade toy is the antithesis of what a wealthy lad might wish for in 21st century Britain when gadgets were all a kid wants and games outside have become rare and uncool. But this is still the early 1990s in times of recession when a make do and mend philosophy means families improvise with what they have and wealth is out of reach for many.
