  • 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.

  • An urban north European fox lies dead in a south London road after being killed by a local vehicle. With a fatal injury to its head, the animal has died the previous night in the gutter of a quiet road in the London borough of Lambeth. Its reddish fur and especially its tail - known as the brush - are otherwise unaffected and so may have succumbed to shock rather than major trauma. It is an adult, rather than a cub and will have been missed by its local den. 'Vulpes vulpes' has a long history of association with humans, having been extensively hunted as a pest and furbearer for many centuries, as well as being represented in human folklore and mythology. Because of its widespread distribution and large population, the red fox is one of the most important furbearing animals harvested for the fur trade.

  • At dawn, a week after the September 11th attacks in New York and in Washington DC, we see the haunted figures of war veterans looking up at the names of dead comrades of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Constitution Gardens, Washington DC where 58,195 names of casualties are recorded on its polished wall. In the foreground are some of those mens' identities whose average age was 19 in the sixties and seventies. A hazy sun rises over the point of the Washington Memorial at a time when the nation was mourning those killed in the New York and Washington attacks, when the military was about to mobilise once again with many American lives lost. The Vietnam war however, remains a low-point in the nation's history and the old men who survived return to trace their buddies which helps them deal with the traumatic loss of their friends and their own youth.

  • Livis, leaning against a tree at his neighbour Jocelyn's home near Cham de Mars,  Port au Prince. He is helping Jocelyn to rescue his belongings. Livis was not affected directly, he did not lose any family himself,  but his experiences were similar to those of many Haitians living in central Port Au Prince.  He is a Winnie the Pooh fan and reads it to his five children. He says, "If you're excited what is the point? You have no choice but to be calm. Captured in my mind are the scenes immediately after the earthquake: the collapsed buildings, the dead bodies and worst of all the cries for help from those under the debris. The cries that would go unanswered until eventually they stopped. They cried but we couldn't help"

  • The Cenotaph on Whitehall, the central focus for the remembrance and commemoration events in Britain photographed during the coronavirus pandemic on the 10th May 2020 in London, United Kingdom. Cenotaph means empty tomb. It symbolises the unprecedented losses suffered during the First World War and is dedicated to The Glorious Dead. There are no names inscribed on the Cenotaph, which allowed individuals to assign their own meaning to the memorial. It also provided a tangible place of mourning for those whose husbands, sons, brothers, friends and relations died during the war without a known grave. This symbolism also resonates through the introduction of the two minutes silence on Armistice Day and the interment of the Unknown Warrior.

  • Halloween pumpkin, London, United Kingdom. Halloween, also known as All Hallows Eve, or All Saints Eve, is a celebration observed in a number of countries on 31st October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows Day. It begins the three-day observance of Allhallowtide, the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints hallows, martyrs, and all the faithful departed. Carving pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns is a popular Halloween tradition that originated hundreds of years ago in Ireland. Back then, however, jack-o-lanterns were made out of turnips or potatoes; it wasnt until Irish immigrants arrived in America and discovered the pumpkin that a new Halloween ritual was born.
