  • Hoardings showing as aspirational future near Bristol docks. A young, prosperous woman sits holding a mug of coffee on a street cafe and a fallen fence lies on the cobbled ground. The landscape is bleak, the remains of Victorian and early 20th century warehouses and harbour buildings that are now derelict and partially-demolished which are now due to be removed from the city's history, to be replaced by regenerated harbour view flats and apartments - homes for the wealthy middle-classes. The developer claims they are bringing the harbour area back to life but the days of tall ships importing trade from around the world (including slaves in the 18th century).

  • Aspirational illustration of future housing development where gentrification is happening in Camberwell, south London. The illustration conveys a fantasy for many, for a quality lifestyle in affordable housing though the reality is far from this as ordinary people struggle to afford a place to live of their own. Camberwell is undergoing massive change as new flats and apartments are built to satisfy the government's need to develop housing for a population desperate for new homes. The image and graffiti seem to have been written as a no hope, disrespect to those wanting their own property.

  • A landscape in a London street of street rubbish (garbage) left below a Stella Artois alcohol billboard. A chic man and woman from the sixties (1960s) stand with all the confidence of the style of a previous era with a landscape of the Mediterranean with its azure blue waters. But the reality of 2011 south London is a far removed from the utopia on the ad. Fly tipping has added to the already untidy pavement (sidewalk) also blocking pedestrian access. Wheelie bins and plastic bags of rubbish attract vermin and poor hygiene and the council workmen will soon appear to once again clear away the mess - before another pile appears.

  • Four RAF fighter pilots of the 'Red Arrows', Britain's Royal Air Force aerobatic team stand on their home airfield at RAF Scampton after another hard day of winter training sorties (flights). The four swap banter with others before a post-flight debrief. Holding their helmets and wearing heavy boots, anti-g-pants and life vests these men form an elite squadron with the RAF but have accumulated over 1,500 flying hours in fast jets with experience in theatres of war. After three years in the Red Arrows they return to frontline and instructing duties. Since 1965 the squadron have flown over 4,000 shows in 52 countries. During a forthcoming calendar of appearances at air shows and fly-pasts across the UK and a few European venues they are an important recruiting tool for future personnel – of pilots and ground-based trades.

RAF students visit this base on a regular basis to learn about their heroes who fly air displays around the UK and Europe. The young lad has been given the chance to sit in the cockpit of this BAE Systems hawk, sitting in the Martin-Baker ejection seat that helps saves lives in the world's jet fighters.

  • A Nepali lady sits on corrugated iron alongside a giant satellite dish on the roof of her home' in a suburb of Kathmandu, Nepal. We see the sunny street below in the background and other rooftops of scattered aerials, roughly-made brick walls. She has hung her colourful (colorful) clothes washing out to dry on a line and on the structure's bowl-like shape that points towards space and signals from the outside world. It was designed to receive television signals from Nepal's main TV station is Nepal Television (NTV) whose programmes are mostly serials from Pakistan and Hindi films. Nepalis however, search the wider-world for their news digest and western culture, especially during governmental crackdown and censorship during the democracy protest disturbances of 2006. King Gyanendra imposed severe media restrictions after assuming direct control of the country the previous year. The scene is of new technology in the backdrop of a poor, third world country who freedoms of expression and experience of western democracy has been tested in recent years.

  • Seen in close-up detail, a holidaymaker's shirt is displayed in Magaluf. He has two pairs of spectacles hanging around his sunburned neck and a printed short-sleeved shirt depicting tropical paradise beach scenes with blue skies, palm trees and representing a Hawaiian Pacific Ocean scene with boats at sea, rolling on the waves. Magaluf is a popular holiday resort on the island of Mallorca, one of the Spanish Balearic Islands. A seedy resort very much orientated around British tourists and catering for both young parties as well as families, Magaluf is considered as an exotic alternative to the chilly seaside towns around the UK's coast.

  • In the heart of the City of London, a caterpillar tracked crane tears down the walls of an old 70s office block close to St Paul's Cathedral, England. As a pedestrian walks past the blue hoardings that protect passers-by like him, the rubble is piled high before being removed as spoil to make way for an brand new construction that appears in an artist's impression picture on the right, above two site engineers wearing fluorescent jackets and hard hats. This is a scene of renewal in London's financial district. Of optimism and regeneration as businesses invest in new workplaces and replacing the tired, old offices that cannot accommodate new computer and server cabling technology.

  • Against orange evening light, a forest of high-rise cranes stand upright at the masive Canary Wharf development on London's Docklands, England. It is early evening and the crane drivers have left for the day, the day's shift have stopped work before resuming tomorrow. The silhouetted lines of each structure stand out clearly against the skyline before the regeneration of this region of East London grows upward. Canary Wharf is the product of the 1980s financial boom when during the office of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, huge building projects such as the Docklands consortium saw vast changes in London's landscape.

  • A man stands on his own on a grassy bank to cut a lonely figure in long grass on an embankment near the tall Canary Wharf tower structure a mile away in the background at Dockland's area of East London. Above the grassy bank at Mudchute, a city farm on London's Isle of Dogs, England, the sky is threatening with gathering clouds but lights still picks out the man against the darkening skyline. He stands with arms folded looking thoughtfully at the ground as if depressed or considering his isolation in the world. It is a seemingly rural location but is, in fact, an area of inner-city London, close to major construction projects, transforming Docklands into a major centre for finance and new housing.

  • A beautiful brunette woman is watched by an unknown male in a club in London's West End during a packed Bhangra-themed music night. As if being stalked by this male pest, we see a moment in this young woman’s evening as she enjoys a night out with girlfriends. The man scratches his nose at the same time as the woman brushes her hand against her cheek. It is hot in the busy club and the man is seen perspiring – he may be a stalker and he may be an innocent bystander – but it does look as though he has a keen interest in this dark-haired beauty. The Asian music is loud and the atmosphere is a pounding throng of young people but our attention is still with the two people, one oblivious to the other.

  • Five elderly women on-lookers are lined against a wall outside the famous Ascot race course on Ladies' Day, the annual event on the English sporting and social calendar in June. Each are standing in order of size, from tallest (who holds a Tesco supermarket bag) to smallest and watch as two posh couples arrive for the day's racing dressed in showy dresses for the ladies and the men in formal top hat and tails. The posh lady in the front is in yellow and holds on to her straw hat on this windy summer day. Each wears their red Ascot badges allowing them entry to this exclusive royal event attended by the Royal Family and the hoi polloi of English society. We see the two sides of the class system but it is a humerous scene. There is good nature between the two groups with smiles exchanged with one couple but discomfort from those behind.

  • A husband and wife make their way along a pavement towards the entrance of the Ascot racecourse where the annual Ladies' Day event is held as part of the English social season calendar. Leading the way and carrying two walking sticks and in a polythene bag, his best jacket for the dress-code is important if one is allowed access to the private enclosures. He wears a top hat and waste coat as he hobbles along with wife in tow. She is behind him rummaging through her handbag perhaps looking for tickets or cash. Royal Ascot is held every June and is one of the main dates on the sporting calendar and social season.
