  • Construction in the capital where The Pinnacle project has stopped, on hold on Bishopsgate in the City of London. Construction work has been suspended again on the Pinnacle in the City of London. Contractor Brookfield is understood to have been told to stop work following more funding concerns over the Square Mile’s tallest tower. Brookfield restarted work last September after developer Arab Investments put together a new finance package. But a lack of a pre-let tenant has now caused further delays on site leaving Byrne Bros concrete cores standing idle. The Bishopsgate Tower, informally referred to as The Pinnacle, was to be a 288 m (945 ft), 64-storey skyscraper in the centre of London's main financial district.

  • Re-enactment soldiers at Housesteads Fort on Roman Hadrian's Wall, once the northern frontier of Rome's empire. Hadrian's Wall (Latin: Vallum Aelium) was a stone and timber fortification built by the Roman Empire across the width of what is now northern England. Begun in AD 122, during the rule of emperor Hadrian, it was built as a military fortification though gates through the wall served as customs posts to allow trade and levy taxation. The 4.5m high Wall was 80 Roman miles (73.5 miles, 117km) long and so important was it to secure its length that up to 10% of the Roman army total force were stationed here. Tough walkers generally take 7 days to trek its coast-to-coast length. These Roman soldier enthusiasts have dressed up for a Roman day.

In the Nam Ou river valley the first phase of construction on the Nam Ou Cascade Hydropower Project by Chinese corporation Sinohydro has begun, the project will generate electricity, 90% of which will be exported to other countries in the region.  The project will directly affect several districts in Phongsaly province through construction, reservoir impoundment and back flooding resulting in loss of land and assets and village relocation.  The 425 km long Nam Ou river is a major tributary of the Mekong and is the lifeline of rural communities and local economies.

New houses come with water, electricity, a rice store, a kitchen, a toilet and two bedrooms. But nowhere to grow food and the villagers currently face a long trek of several kilometres back to their old fields.

  • Women shoppers carry their purchases in yellow Selfridges bags as they leave the famous department store in London's Oxford Street. Amid crowds of fellow-shopaholics, the women walk down the pavement (sidewalk) laden with purchases. The economic recovers appears to have begun in earnest and retail therapy has attracted these Londoners to the West End, away from the larger, warmer shopping Malls on the outskirts of town. Selfridges was founded by Harry Gordon Selfridge. The flagship store in London's Oxford Street is the second largest shop in the UK (after Harrods) and was opened on 15 March 1909.

  • From a high viewpoint on Snow Hill, we see the green  'Long Walk' in the Royal Estate's Windsor Great Park. We look down the 3-mile straight road into the distance towards Windsor Castle in the summer shinshine during the equestrian 3-Day Event held annually on Her Majesty the Queens's property. Half-way down the lush avenue of Elm trees there are some horses and their riders either warming up before competition, or galloping across the landscape on a round against the clock. A few spectators have stopped to watch this part of the course but others are elsewhere at the dramatic water jumps. The Long Walk was commenced by Charles II from 1680-1685 by planting a double avenue of elm trees. The central carriage road was added by Queen Anne in 1710. Windsor Castle was begun in the 11th century by William the Conqueror as it afforded a good defensive point over the River Thames. A vast area of Windsor Forest to the south of the castle became reserved by the King for personal hunting and also to supply the castle with wood, deer, boar and fish. Windsor Great Park (locally referred to simply as the Great Park) is a large deer park and Crown Estate of 5,000 acres, to the south of the town of Windsor on the border of Berkshire and Surrey in England. The park was, for many centuries, the private hunting ground of Windsor Castle and dates primarily from the mid-13th century. Now largely open to the public, the parkland is a popular recreation area for residents of the western London suburbs.

  • Walkers pass near the ruins of Milecastle 39 on Roman Hadrian's Wall, once the northern frontier of Rome's empire from Barbarian tribes. Hadrian's Wall (Latin: Vallum Aelium) was a stone and timber fortification built by the Roman Empire across the width of what is now northern England. Begun in AD 122, during the rule of emperor Hadrian, it was built as a military fortification though gates through the wall served as customs posts to allow trade and levy taxation. The 4.5m high Wall was 80 Roman miles (73.5 miles, 117km) long and so important was it to secure its length that up to 10% of the Roman army total force were stationed here. Tough walkers generally take 7 days to trek its coast-to-coast length.

  • 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.
