  • Mythical Greek male telamon figures look towards a female caryatid sculpture on the exterior of the Bank of England, on 15th August 2016 in the City of London, UK. The Bank of England, is the central bank of the United Kingdom and the model on which most modern central banks have been based. Established in 1694, it is the second oldest central bank in the world. Sir Herbert Bakers rebuilding of the Bank, demolishing most of Sir John Soanes earlier building, was described by architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner as the greatest architectural crime, in the City of London, of the twentieth century.

  • Statues and figures of the Fonte Luminosa on Jardim <br />
de Alameda Dom Afonso Enriques, on 14th July 2016, in Lisbon, Portugal. Built in 1940 during WWII when Lisbon was a neutral safe haven, it was named “fonte luminosa” luminous fountain because of its light displays at night. The fountain was built to celebrate the regular supply of water to the eastern part of the city. Although originally conceived in 1938, it was inaugurated only on 30 May 1948.

  • During a summer sea fog that has swept along this part of the Portuguese coast, misty sunbathers and sea swimmers enjoy cooler temperatures, on 18th July 2016, at Barra, near Aveira, Portugal. The faint figures disappear into the distance as the mist rolls across the beach.

  • Bikes are locked up on railings beneath Romanesque figures in the Hofburg Kaiserappartements, on 28th June 2016 in Vienna, Austria. Hofburg Palace is the former imperial palace forming part of the official residence and workplace of the President of Austria. Built in the 13th century and expanded in the centuries since, the palace has housed some of the most powerful people in European and Austrian history, including monarchs of the Habsburg dynasty, rulers of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

  • Dawn light and silhouetted people with the Palaces of Westminster, Britain's parliament building on the far side of Westminster Bridge on the River Thames. Sinister figures can be seen on the steps leading down to the Embankment on the Southbank and on the bridge too.  It is early morning on the south bank of the river and warm light shines on the Gothic architecture. The Palace, also known as the Houses of Parliament or Westminster Palace, is 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.

  • Old apartment and iron balcony architecture in Lisbon's old Arabic Alfama district. Murals of classical Portuguese figures adorn the plaster walls next to crumbling windows and balconies which have the look of vintage from a former era in Lisbon's capital. Alfama is the oldest district of Lisbon, spreading on the slope between the Castle of Lisbon and the Tejo river. Its name comes from the Arabic Al-hamma, meaning fountains or baths. It contains many important historical attractions, with many Fado bars and restaurants.

  • We see four office workers silhouetted against the large orange wall of the Credit Lyonnais Bank at Broadgate in the City of London, UK. The two figures are reduced to black shapes and without detail that may identify them or their clothes, are hurrying in the same direction, carrying a bag or briefcase but the feeling of rushing business is seen and their scale is ambiguous because we don't know how close or far away they are from each other. This is due to telephoto lens foreshortening. Some therefore look giants and some appear tiny. Broadgate Estate is a large, 32 acre (129,000 m²) office and retail estate in the City of London, owned by British Land and managed by Broadgate Estates. It was originally built by Rosehaugh and was the largest office development in London until the arrival of Canary Wharf in the early 1990s.

  • 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.

  • A man hangs from the hat of Prince Henry, Duke of Viseu, at the Monument of the Discoveries at Belem, Lisbon. The man has found a way to scale part of the 177 foot (54 metre) high celebration to Henry, otherwise known as Henry the Navigator, or Seafarer. The trespasser is dwarfed by the giant, oversized effigies and the man hangs by his fingers and rests his foot on Henry's ship's sail which points out to sea. It is a clear day with blue skies and the slightly yellow stone is side-lit to show each feature of the carvings in fine detail. It is a classic scene of Portguese history depicted during the 1960s fascist Portuguese President Salazar's regime. Henry remains one of ocean-conquering Portugal's most famous of cartographers, whose explorers discovered new routes around Africa and the Atlantic. Although he was called Prince Henry the Navigator by the English, Prince Henry never actually sailed on any of the voyages of discovery he sponsored. Instead, Prince Henry established a school for the study of the arts of navigation, mapmaking, and shipbuilding. This would allow sailors to better guide their ships and to come up with new ship designs. Immediately behind Henry is King Manuel I then poet Luis de Camōes. The eight figures are carved by sculptor Leopoldo Almeida and along with the monument, were commissioned for the 1960 world exhibition to commemorate the 500th anniversary of Henry's death in 1460.

  • At the base of the Monument which commemorates the Great Fire of London, a courier driver from the United States Postal Service (UPS), stands with his head in his hands as if in reaction to the conflagration behind. Above him is a giant mural, whose huge figures depict the panic and evacuation during the disaster that struck London between 2nd of  September and Wednesday, 5th September 1666. The modern man in company uniform is wearing the same brown colours as that of King Charles II and his courtier who are also reacting to the news of the city's burning timber buildings. 13,200 houses, 87 parish churches, St. Paul's Cathedral, and most of the buildings of the City authorities were lost in the high fanned winds. It is estimated that it destroyed the homes of 70,000 of the City's 80,000 inhabitants. The City of London has a resident population of under 10,000 but a daily working population of 311,000. The City of London is a geographically-small City within Greater London, England. The City as it is known, is the historic core of London from which, along with Westminster, the modern conurbation grew. The City's boundaries have remained constant since the Middle Ages but  it is now only a tiny part of Greater London. The City of London is a major financial centre, often referred to as just the City or as the Square Mile, as it is approximately one square mile (2.6 km) in area. London Bridge's history stretches back to the first crossing over Roman Londinium, close to this site and subsequent wooden and stone bridges have helped modern London become a financial success.

  • One man is acclaimed the world over and is synonymous with making hand-carved puppets - Bryan Clarke. He is Chairman of the British Punch & Judy Fellowship and has been a professional Punch & Judy man for well over 50 years, making and supplying puppets from his workshop near Lowestoft on the east coast of England for the last 30 years. Hundreds of Punch & Judy performers throughout the UK and overseas use Bryan's puppets and some are seen here in various stages of production - some finished and hanging from this shed roof while in front of this talented artist, we see blocks of wood still being shaped into the familiar characters that children the world over recognise as Mr Punch and other figures. Mr Clarke smiles at the view in this relaxed portrait taken in 1992.
