  • A detail of the clock face to the Elizabeth Tower in London. It's close to 4pm and we see the hands and neo-Gothic design. The Elizabeth Tower (previously called the Clock Tower) named in tribute to Queen Elizabeth II in her Diamond Jubilee year – was raised as a part of Charles Barry's design for a new palace, after the old Palace of Westminster was largely destroyed by fire on the night of 16 October 1834. The new Parliament was built in a Neo-gothic style. Although Barry was the chief architect of the Palace, he turned to Augustus Pugin for the design of the clock tower. It celebrated its 150th anniversary on 31 May 2009. The tower was completed in 1858 and has become one of the most prominent symbols of both London and England,

  • Brighton, UK. Friday 21st December 2012. Burning the Clocks has been a Brighton tradition for almost two decades. This event takes place on the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year. A 2,000-strong parade winds its way through the streets and people pass their handmade paper and willow lanterns – filled symbolically with their hopes and dreams – into a blazing bonfire to “burn the clocks” and welcome in the new longer day.

  • A detail of Big Ben's clock face in Westminster, central London. The clock and dials were designed by Augustus Pugin, set in an iron frame 23 feet (7.0 m) in diameter, supporting 312 pieces of opal glass, rather like a stained-glass window. As a symbol of parliamentary power and a national democracy, Big Ben is part of the Houses of Parliament or Westminster Palace, where the two Houses of the Parliament of the United Kingdom (the House of Lords and the House of Commons) conduct their business. It is therefore a potent symbol for British Governmental power, influence and a world-famous landmark for tourists. Big Ben is the name of the clock's bell and not the tower itself.

  • In the 24hrs that a further 38 died from Coronavirus, bringing the total to 41,736, a further easing of the UK’s Covid pandemic lockdown restrictions took place with many high street shops today being allowed to re-open after three months of forced closure. Prime Minister Boris Johnson, wanting to stimulate the economy, has urged people to shop with confidence and long queues formed outside the main brands. But unlike on public transport, face coverings are not compulsory so shop floors and shopping practices have had to be adapted to ensure customers’ social distances, amid fears of a second infection wave. A lady shopper wearing a face covering walks past a billboard featuring a wrist watch, on Oxford Street, on 15th June 2020, in London, England.

  • From a very low viewpoint, we see crowds of British citizens who to and fro beneath the Gothic tower of Big Ben in Parliament Square, London at almost 10 minutes past 2pm . Lots of people squeeze past each other during the closing stages of London's Marathon as the pavements is narrower when crowd barriers control numbers. A young lady finds her way through other passers-by as the clock tower rises at an angle, the perspective of the wide-angle lens' distortion. The female's t-shirt has a woman's face from the xx clothing brand. This is also election time and the people are subject to the democratic process as they elect an new leader to govern the state.
