  • As early morning mist makes its way across moors and mountain grasses, we see a dead ewe that lies decomposing at a collapsed dry stone wall on Nether Moor, Derbyshire. The sheep has been left behind the rest of the farmer's flock and as it decomposes, its eyes have already been pecked out and its white front incisor teeth gaping, as if grinning in death. This is a loss of revenue of vital income at a time of economic hardship for those in this tough industry. In the background we see the moors rising to it summit in the area called Edale, a valley in North Derbyshire, 15 miles west of Sheffield, in the heart of the Peak District National Park. Edale valley is a loose collection of scattered farmsteads or 'booths' as they are known which grew up around the original shelters or 'boothies' used by shepherds when tending their sheep on the hillsides.

  • Pictured are remains of a training centre for nurses next to Central Hospital. The building collapsed with an estimated 80 people still inside. Government buildings were particularly hard hit in the earthquake for example 87 percent of schools in Port Au Prince  are destroyed. In the foreground the remains of a person still lie. A month after the quake most remains but not all have been cleared from the streets. Inside the buildings very few bodies have been cleared such is the enormity of the task.

  • Menelaus Patroclus, Romano Greek statue in the Loggia dei Lanzi, Florence.<br />
Menelaus bearing the corpse of Patroclus. Marble, Roman copy of the Flavian Era after a Hellenistic original of the 3rd century BC, with modern restorations. Found in Rome; in the Medici collections in Florence, 1570; installed in the Loggia dei Lanzi since 1741.<br />
Piazza della Signoria is an L-shaped square in front of the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, Italy. It was named after the Palazzo della Signoria, also called Palazzo Vecchio.<br />
It is the focal point of the origin and of the history of the Florentine Republic and still maintains its reputation as the political hub of the city.It is the meeting place of Florentines as well as the numerous tourists, located near Ponte Vecchio and Piazza del Duomo and gateway to Uffizi Gallery.<br />
The Loggia dei Lanzi consists of wide arches open to the street, three bays wide and one bay deep. The arches rest on clustered pilasters with Corinthian capitals. The wide arches appealed so much to the Florentines, that Michelangelo even proposed that they should be continued all around the Piazza della Signoria<br />
It is effectively an open-air sculpture gallery of antique and Renaissance art including the Medici lions.

  • Small statue of Enver Hoxha in a waiting room inside the Pyramid,  Tirana. This brutal structure was designed by the daughter and son-in-law of Enver Hoxha, Albania's communist dictator. Initially, it was a mausoleum (officially the "Enver Hoxha Memorial Museum"), inaugurated in 1988 as the final resting place of Albania's ruler, Enver Hoxha, the lord of life and death in Albania from 1944 until his death in 1985.<br />
<br />
With the fall of the Communist regime in 1991, Hoxha's corpse was evicted, just three years into its final rest. In 1992, the Pyramid became in name Tirana's main cultural center devoted to promoting contemporary arts (visual and performing arts, music, film and culture). In reality, its various halls were better known for the hosting of consumer goods trade fairs.

  • A mangled, headless, pigeon lies on the pavement on London's Piccadily in the capital. The gory corpse of the bird that has somehow been torn apart lies on the street for pedestrians to avoid as they pass-by near Bond Street. Its wing is splayed out in the shadows and a single foot sticks out in sunlight, the end of an existence on London's buildings, looking for scraps and crumbs.
