  • Wearing the traditional kimono, a middle-aged geisha lady from the 'Minamoto Kitchoan' store collects money from westerners in London on behalf of the Japanese Red Cross Tsunami appeal. While standing in the street on Picadilly, in the heart of Westminster, an English gentleman stoops to organise the contents of his briefcase. Originally, the Geisha were traditional, female Japanese entertainers whose skills include performing various Japanese arts such as classical music and dance. Such a scene is unusual on a London street but the tsunami disaster encouraged many ex-patriate Japanese to collect money from Europeans for their countrymen.

  • A loyalist wall 300th anniversary mural in a protestant area of Belfast showing King William of Orange (the Dutch-born King Billy), the hero of protestant Northern Ireland whose victory at the Battle of the Boyne in 1690 ensured a protestant northern Ireland. The Battle was fought between two rival claimants of the English, Scottish, and Irish thrones – the Catholic King James and the Protestant King William – across the River Boyne near Drogheda on the east coast of Ireland. The battle, won by William, was a turning point in James' unsuccessful attempt to regain the crown and ultimately helped ensure the continuation of Protestant ascendancy in Ireland.

  • A young skateboarder leaps into the air beneath the huge memorial to the German Communist leader Ernst Thalmann, the leader of the Communist Party of Germany (KPD) during much of the Weimar Republic. He was arrested by the Gestapo in 1933 and held in solitary confinement for eleven years, before being shot in Buchenwald on Adolf Hitler's orders in 1944.

Its motto was" "Für Frieden und Sozialismus seid bereit – Immer bereit" ("For peace and socialism be ready - always ready") but the Pioneers were disbanded in 1989 after early protests here in Leipzig at the same time as the Berlin Wall and the Socialist state's fall.

  • London’s Walkie Talkie building viewed from Fenchurch Street during the coronavirus pandemic on the 2nd May 2020 in London, United Kingdom. The central London skyscraper had already melted cars with a “death ray” caused by its reflective glass before it even finished construction. Once open, its sky garden was criticized for falling short of promises to be a truly public space, and for feeling like “an airport terminal.” In addition, the building’s overall concave design has been charged with creating a down draft powerful enough to knock people over. Its successful grant of planning permission also became in itself a public scandal, given that the planner’s report warned that it would cause “significant visual harm.” And now, to cap it all, the U.K.’s Carbuncle Cup Awards have named the tower the ugliest British building completed in 2015.

  • A dog owner bends down to pick up his dog's mess in an Autumnal park. Surrounded by autumn leaves, brown and yellow in afternoon sunlight, the man stoops to collect the dog's crap on the grass in Ruskin Park in the London borough of Lambeth.

If in contact with such organic material, it's known to cause Toxocariasis - especially in children - a condition caused by bacteria that travels to the human eye so it is expected that pet owners take the faeces away, wrapped in plastic bags and deposited in specially-provided bins at various entrance and exit gates.

  • An elderly man sunbathes on a summer beach in the seaside resort of Paignton, England. The gentleman looks out across the stretch of sandy coast at low-tide and a square pool made by flooding high-tide sea water provides a natural place to swim when the sea is far out. The male in the foreground is seen in close-up and we see the expanse of his back covered in freckles. After many sunny hours beneath solar rays he is tanned but not burned. Nevertheless, he is at risk of the pigment in those freckles turning into melanomas, the cause of skin cancer. More than 10,000 people a year are developing the deadliest form of skin cancer as a result of package holidays and excessive use of sunbeds. Cases of malignant melanoma rose by 650 (6.5 per cent) in a single year as a result of binge-tanning at home and abroad, according to Cancer Research UK.

Peeling paint and a make-shift padlock shows this museum piece's age and exposure to the outside elements.

This was later found to be due to catastrophic metal fatigue, not well understood at the time, in the airframes. The Comet was withdrawn from service and extensively tested to discover the cause; the first incident had been incorrectly blamed on adverse weather.
