  • In pouring rain, United States Air Force pilots stand like canmouflaged statues in the undergrowth near Fairchild Air Force Base, Spokane, Washington. They are listening to a USAF survival instructor giving them advice about another challenge they are about to face, a few hundred yards ahead in the woods, so they listen intently in the saturatedconditions. They stand motionless, green figures in a green maze of foliage, wearing waterproof cagoules covering their backpacks which are shiny as the rain trickles down. They look like hunchbacks of the forest. The week-long survival course is held at the military facilities around Fairchild where the Air Force conducts a survival, escape and evasion course which combat pilots need to pass before rejoining their units for real-time warfare. This part of the lecture is held in the forest and forms part of an extensive physical and psychological assessment for young aviators on active service. In the future any one of them may be shot down behind enemy lines and need to use the lessons passed-on here to help facilitate their rescue by US forces. One pilot who passed this course in 1991, himself a Spokane-born boy, was F-16 pilot Scott O'Grady. He put his skills learned here to the test while evading Serb forces before being airlifted to safety and a hero's Presidential welcome.

  • We are looking upwards into the faces of two surgeons wearing medical masks and surgical gowns as they carry out a wisdom tooth extraction procedure at the famous St. Bartholomews (Barts) Hospital in London, England. With eyes focussed on their work, the two health professionals are intently looking into the mouth of their patient who is covered in clean green sheets but remains unseen to the viewer. Strong operating theatre lights shine down on to the patient and we see the men's gloved hands reaching carefully, avoiding infection or bacterial problems like MRSA. Barts is Britain’s oldest hospital – founded in 1123 - and boasts a progressive policy of encouraging day-surgery for out-patients allowing patients to return home soon after their minor operations.

  • We see the head and shoulders of a man in military uniform who stands motionless beside the American flag.  he is at a graduation ceremony for United States Air Force pilots who have just passed a week-long survival courseheld at the Fairchild Air Force Base, Spokane, Washington. Its highy-trained personel conducts a survival, escape and evasion course which combat pilots and air crew need to pass before rejoining their units for real-time warfare. Conducted, in hangars and the surrounding forests, it forms part of an extensive physical and psychological assessment of young aviators on active service. In the future any one of them may be shot down behind enemy lines and need to use the lessons passed-on here to help facilitate their rescue by US forces.

  • With great care, two surgeons work intensely during an open heart procedure at the private Health Care International hospital, They wear hygienic face masks and do their intricate work carefully. This hospital delivered only high-end medicine to foreign patients and telemedicine was popular in the 90s when a growing awareness of the potential benefits of advanced medicine, emerging democracies, growing middle classes and an ageing population world-wide established locations like this in Scotland. But they were expensive to build and run and this hospital at Clydebank of up to 500 beds catered primarily for foreigners who flew into Glasgow airport, was built with the assistance of £30 million of public money, went into receivership when its target of overseas business was slower to build-up impacting its cash flows.

  • An NHS surgeon performs an operation in a London hospital using endoscopy. Watching the progress of the instrument as it makes its way along a part of the stomach, the surgeon uses his skill to make minute adjustments using great care and hand-eye co-ordination. Endoscopy means ‘looking inside’ and typically refers to looking inside the body for medical reasons using an endoscope, an instrument used to examine the interior of a hollow organ or cavity of the body. Unlike most other medical imaging devices, endoscopes are inserted directly into the organ. Endoscopy can also refer to using a borescope in technical situations where direct line-of-sight observation is not feasible.

  • Chairman of Ernst & Young Mark Ottey peers down on his employees on a giant screen, addressing his loyal audience of E & Y staff who have congregated at an Ernst & Young Academy Day held for 3,000 of company London employees at Excel in London's Docklands, England. The hall is packed and his disciples listen and watch intently and obediently to watch their Leader speak like a Big Brother character, who ernestly and sincerely talks down to them despite being dressed casually for such a large event. Each employee will attend this brainstorming fair where later, motivational pep-talks from executives, outside speakers and gurus will talk to large groups of E & Y personnel so their presence on this day away from the office is vital for the year's business ahead.

  • Mother of the bride inspects her daughter's new ring after a civil wedding ceremony in Essex, England. The older lady holds her daughter's hand and looks more intently at her newly placed wedding ring on the third finger, according to tradition. The mother also holds a glass of Pims, a well-liked drink of alcohol and fruit that helps refresh on a warm day. And wearing a very English piece of headwear is the 'fascinator' that perches on the side of the head. This European wedding has taken place inside a covered Orangery at a private wedding and event venue. Rather than marrying in a religious context, the happy couple have preferred to tie the knot in this popular setting for a non-church meaning.

  • Holidaymakers are seated in deckchairs on the North Pier at Blackpool, England. As a man in the back row drinks deeply from a can and a lady next to him looks intently at life to the right, a more eccentric woman sleeps with a lacy handkerchief stretched across her face, pinned inside her sunglasses. Looking very English with embroidered or printed pattern of flowers. This northern seaside resort in the north-west of England is diverse in its transient holiday population whose behaviour can be routinely odd. Blackpool is the largest resort in the north of England and visited traditionally by working people from industrial towns and cities during the industrial revolution.

  • In memory of fallen WW2 Polish Air Force crews, are the front gates of Polish War Memorial, on 6th November 2019, in South Ruislip, Northolt, London, England. The Polish War Memorial is in memory of airmen from Poland who served in the Royal Air Force as part of the Polish contribution to World War II. The memorial was designed by Mieczyslaw Lubelski, who had been interned in a forced labour camp during the war. It is constructed from Portland stone with bronze lettering and a bronze eagle, the symbol of the Polish Air Force. The original intention was to record the names of all those Polish airmen who lost their lives while serving during WW2 a total of 2,408 but there was not enough space for this and, as a compromise, the names of the 1,241 who died in operational sorties are there instead.

  • Seen through a fisheye lens, we see an aerial view of the city of Florence (Firenze) as a lady tourist surveys the urban landscape using a tourist map. She has climbed the 84.7 meters (277.9 ft) high Gioto's Belltower (or campanile) of Duomo Cathedral. Due to the nature of the extreme-wide lens, the curvature of the horizon makes a global sort of perspective. Far below are the tiled rooftops of this Italian city's housing and properties and further into the distance are the green fields of Tuscany. On the marble ledge that is unguarded against accidental or intentional leaps, there is the graffiti of world tourism. The languages of world youth are written on this Renaissance building. The Basilica di Santa Maria del Fiore is the cathedral church (Duomo), begun in 1296 in the Gothic style to designs of Arnolfo di Cambio and completed structurally in 1436
