  • A lunchtime jogger accidentally collides with a young male pedestrian in a narrow City of London street. In a narrow part of a street called Wallbrook (the route of the ancient River Wallbrook that still flows underground here) office workers and those exercising enter a pinch-point where construction works narrow the pavement width. Running through here is inevitably going to force people to have their personal space compromised. The collision is brief and good natured as sorrys and excuse mes are uttered.

  • A cyclist is startled by a nearby bus horn that emits a warning to pedestrians at the location of a roadside memorial to cycle courier Henry Warwick aged 61, killed in an accident on the junction of Bishopsgate and Wormwood Street. Warwick worked for Rico Logistics and was said to be an experienced urban cyclist, working as a courier in London for more about 20 years. Nevertheless, he has joined a growing list of tragic deaths due to collisions between bikes, trucks and in this case, a Terravision coach. Over one million Londoners own bicycles and between 1986 and April 2011, 439 cyclists have been killed in traffic accidents in Greater London.

  • Woman trips and falls over on Lambeth pavement as passers-by walk on. Lying on the pavement, just having landed on the ground, we look down from an aerial perspective to see three men largely ignoring her plight: Londoners being known as aloof and unhelpful to others.  Afterwards, the woman picks herself up and carries on her route unhurt along this stretch of sidewalk in Camberwell, south London.

  • A life belt hangs on a cross-shaped post, all painted a vivid red as the sun sinks down below the horizon and beyond the historic Bamburgh Castle, in Northumberland, northern England. Lit with a strong off-camera flash we see the slightly blurred device, invented for saving lives at sea, with a ghostly corona around its form, against a fading blue sky. The rope dangles near the ground, around which the grasses of the dunes blow in a faint breeze. Only the foreground is lit by the flash and the distant castle building and shoreline. We see such equipment and imagine safety and rescue and also jeopardy and hazards at sea. Supplied for those taking risks and making stupid decisions makes these items essential on coastal areas.

  • A businessman strides along a London street holding a banana whose shadow appears to be part of another man's anatomy. As strong sunlight shines on this part of a London pavement, we see the confident stride of the man in the foreground, probably on his way back from a lunchtime stroll and returning to his office with the fresh fruit and a sandwich. What cannot be anticipated by the viewer, or by the second man, is that the banana has superimposed itself to the exact place of his groin area. The banana, by its very curved shape has long been the butt of sexual innuendo and double-entendre. The surrogate penis being the perfect adult pun.

  • Making their way across a field, alongside a hedge, and away from a collection homes a mother and her two children walk from the direction of massive chimneys and cooling towers. The instillation in the distance is the Sellafield. Formerly known as Windscale, Sellafield (operated by Sellafield Ltd) is a nuclear processing and former electricity generating site, close to the village of Seascale on the coast of the Irish Sea in Cumbria, England. The site has been the subject of much controversy because of discharges of radioactive material into the sea, mainly accidental but some alleged to have been deliberate. 1983 was the year of the ‘Beach Discharge Incident’ in which high radioactive discharges containing ruthenium and rhodium 106, both beta-emitting isotopes, resulted in the closure of a beach. BNFL received a fine of £10,000 for this discharge.

  • Seen through a fisheye lens, we see an aerial view of the city of Florence (Firenze) as a lady tourist surveys the urban landscape using a tourist map. She has climbed the 84.7 meters (277.9 ft) high Gioto's Belltower (or campanile) of Duomo Cathedral. Due to the nature of the extreme-wide lens, the curvature of the horizon makes a global sort of perspective. Far below are the tiled rooftops of this Italian city's housing and properties and further into the distance are the green fields of Tuscany. On the marble ledge that is unguarded against accidental or intentional leaps, there is the graffiti of world tourism. The languages of world youth are written on this Renaissance building. The Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore is the cathedral church (Duomo), begun in 1296 in the Gothic style to designs of Arnolfo di Cambio and completed structurally in 1436

  • In the foreground a local dog lies down in the afternoon heat on rutted ancient Roman flag stones while in the background tourists walk down the old highway in Pompeii, Italy. Next to his exhausted body, the grooved ruts carved by wooden wheels can still be seen next to a large stepping stone which let chariots ride over the stone yet allowed pedestrians to step over the road. Pompeii is a ruined Roman city near modern Naples in the Italian region of Campania. It was completely buried during a catastrophic eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius on 24 August 79 AD. The volcano covered Pompeii under many metres of ash, and it was lost for over 1,600 years before its accidental rediscovery in 1748. Since then, its excavation has provided an extraordinarily detailed insight into the life of a city at the height of the Roman Empire. Today, it is a main tourist attraction of Italy and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Pompeii has become a popular tourist destination; with approximately 2.5 million visitors a year, it is the most popular tourist attraction in Italy.

Built in the Sukhothai are, 700 years ago it is a classic example of the curved grace of Sukhothai art. May years ago the Golden Buddha was covered in stucco art to protect it from the Burmese. Then in 1955 the image was accidentally knocked, rvealing the gold beneath.

  • It is tradition among puffin hunters to release the first puffin caught each season to bring luck for future hunting – any accidentally caught with fish in their beaks are also released. Puffin hunting has been of major importance in Vestmannaeyjar and during the hunting season of just over 6 weeks every year, some 16,000 puffins were caught to make up Iceland’s national dinner. However by 2011 and 2012, breeding failures had taken such a toll that puffin hunting was banned in the Vestmannaeyjar.  In 2013 five-day puffin-hunting season was allowed at the end of July.
