  • An elderly couple sleep on a seaside shelter's bench on the promenade at the southern English resort of Southend-on-Sea, Essex. As the gentleman clasps both hands and with his stick propped up on the seating, the lady has hooked her handbag around an elbow, her arms folded over themselves as she snoozes for an afternoon catnap. They are the epitome of marital loyalty, a lifetime commitment of stability, love and affection.

  • A middle-aged businessman looks up from paperwork during a working day in his 1970s Brussels office. The executive wearing a white shirt and tie pauses writing with a pencil to look over his glasses, past the In Tray and towards the viewer. There is no computer or electronic devices that describe this decade towards the end of the 20th century. The calendar shows us today's date of July 5th 1971. The picture shows us a memory of nostalgia in an era from the last century.

  • Two friends of Hispanic-descent have stopped on Ocean Drive in Miami Beach, Florida to talk with associates while sitting in their SUV 4x4 pick-up-style truck. Each have hold of two Dogo Argentino mastiff puppies, one of which is hanging his chin over through the open window of the vehicle, its long claws also very clearly seen and its freckly nose pointing towards the viewer. The other young animal is being propped up by the car's driver, its belly visible to anyone leaning inside the car. Both dogs are albino-coloured with floppy ears and pink eyes while the two healthy men are dark-skinned and in good-humour, one wearing a singlet vest and prominent silver necklace and the other topless so warm is this summer day.

  • A guardsman of an unknown regiment, stands on ceremonial duty in the Mall during celebrations of the Queen's official Golden Jubilee in June 2002. The soldier in resplendent red tunic and the controversial bearskin is an iconic emblem of Britain's armed forces during official events. But the officer may be a Grenadier or a Welsh Guard who share similar uniforms and perform similar duties in London. We see his chinstrap in polished gold leaf and his rank insignia on his epaulette as he stands silent, checking other soldier ranks. The Grenadier Guards (GREN GDS) is the most senior regiment of the Guards Division of the British Army, and, as such, is the most senior regiment of infantry. The Grenadier Guards celebrated its 350th anniversary in 2006.

  • Four members of the Royal Gurkha Rifles are on tactical manoeuvres on heathland above Farnborough airfield, England. These Nepali-born boys belong to an elite Regiment of the British army.

  • A Bulldog stretches beneath his owner in a central London cafe. The pet dog has had enough of sitting patiently and loyally at the feet of his owner who talks on the phone, seated at a table outside a cafe in Victoria in the capital. The Bulldog is a medium-sized breed of dog commonly referred to as the English Bulldog or British Bulldog. Other Bulldog breeds include the American Bulldog, Old English Bulldog (now extinct), Olde English Bulldogge, and the French Bulldog. The Bulldog is a muscular, heavy dog with a wrinkled face and a distinctive pushed-in nose. As a symbol however, the Bulldog represents the British people and Britishness - made famous by Winston Churchill during WW2.

  • Mail-box on the road leading into Robbinsville, North Carolina. Although this picture is typical of the road side view one gets when driving through the US. The US flag depicted in this context reflects the increased visibility of the stars and stripes post 9/11 and evokes a more sinister interpretation of this picture.

  • A guardsman of an unknown regiment, stands on ceremonial duty in the Mall during celebrations of the Queen's official Golden Jubilee in June 2002. The soldier in resplendent red tunic and the controversial bearskin is an iconic emblem of Britain's armed forces during official events. But the officer may be a Grenadier or a Welsh Guard who share similar uniforms and perform similar duties in London. We see over his shoulder on which his regimental insignia is and also where the bayonet of his weapon is fixed and dangerously sharp. He is a sergeant major and therefore responsible for other soldiers' rank and files. The Grenadier Guards (GREN GDS) is the most senior regiment of the Guards Division of the British Army, and, as such, is the most senior regiment of infantry. The Grenadier Guards celebrated its 350th anniversary in 2006.

  • Seen in a close-up detail, we see a young woman's face, painted with an amalgamation of both the US and English flags during both countries opening World Cup group match. Having walked through Trafalgar Square, the location for many a sporting celebration and protest, the woman smiles to the viewer, her even teeth showing and hair brushed away from her face. But her allegiance is divided, a split loyalty for this football fan who is an American citizen but who lives in London - and so supports both teams. The blue and white Stars and Stripes appear in the top left corner and the red cross of St George horizontally across her cheeks and vertically down her nose.

  • Londoners cross southbound over London Bridge during the evening rush hour. A young couple walk arm in arm and next to them an older couple hold hands in a display of loyalty and affection followed by others walking away out of the City of London. There has been a crossing over the Thames here since the Romans first forded the river in the early 1st Century with subsequent medieval and Victorian stone bridges becoming an important thoroughfare from the City on the north bank, to Southwark on the south where transport hubs such as the mainline station gets commuters to the suburbs and satellite towns.

  • Marching soldiers Tirana. The ranks and the structure of the Albanian Armed Forces were organised based on the Soviet concepts, thus increasing the political control of the State-Party over the Armed Forces.<br />
<br />
Like all other branches of the state, the military was subjugated to Communist Party control. All high-ranking military officers and most of the lower and middle ranks were members of the Communist Party - and had loyalties to it. The State and Party went even further in 1966, when military ranks were abolished following the example of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army and the military commander was insignificant with respect to the commanding role of the political commissars.<br />
<br />
The Sigurimi, was responsible for the execution, the imprisonment and deportation of more than 600 Officers from the Armed Forces, thereby completely neutralizing the Armed Forces ability to start a coup d’état. As the communist regime collapsed in Albania during 1990, there was a real fear that the armed forces might intervene to halt the collapse of communism by force. In the event, the armed forces stood by as the regime of which they had been a part disintegrated.
