  • 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.

  • The A30 highway runs deep into the South-West of England - from Exeter in the county of Devon to Penzance in the narrow peninsular of Cornwall. On certain dates in the calendar routes like this, near the Cornish town of Bodmin, England, come to a standstill from the huge volume of cars and private vehicles, all heading down to costal resorts and better weather. We see here a huge tailback of traffic that is queueing along one side of the British dual-carriageway (two lanes in each direction) from close-up  to the distance down and up a natural hill in this undulating landscape. The cars have edged forward are nose to tail for hours in summer heatwave and tempers fray, children arguing in the back and an otherwise relaxed holiday mood suddenly goes bad.

  • Seen at a slight angle, a Total petrol filling station is seen in early evening while there is still detail in the fading sky. The forecourt is illuminated by overhead lights and the place glows invitingly for drivers to stop and replenish their leaded, unleaded or diesel fuel. Business is slow at the moment before the next rush to buy gasoline on sale 24/7 night and day. It is the fourth largest oil company in the UK with a turnover of over £5 billion, and employs over 5,000 people.

  • Moving fast past a farmhouse building on a busy UK A road, unseen traffic leaves its light trails on an otherwise dark winter night near the giant DIRFT warehouse logistics park in Daventry, Northamptonshire England. Some rooms are lit in this remote residence which show signs of occupation. Red tail lights from cars, lorries and trucks streak by with tall traces of container traffic leaves light on the picture, diagonally leaving their mark. It is a very busy highway on which to own a home but this infrastructure is a vital route that keeps Britain's logistics moving across the country 24/7.
