  • An amateur tennis player serves to a friend on the opposite side of a local court near high-rise flats seen from Brockwell Park, Herne Hill, South London. Having thrown the yellow ball up in thee air, the server pauses, before it drops and he can swing his racket to pound it across court to the waiting receiver, dressed in a blue t-shirt. The flats behind are lit in winter sunshine, warm air rising from an outlet, with only the upper floors visible to outdoor pedestrians. Brockwell Park is a 50.8 hectare (125.53 acres) park located between Brixton, Herne Hill and Tulse Hill. Brockwell Hall house and its grounds were acquired by the London County Council (LCC) in March 1891 and opened to the public the following summer. In 1901 the LCC acquired a further 43 acres (17 ha) of land north of the original park.

  • Peering through the steamy window of a Chinese restaurant in London's Chinatown district, we see the shapes and forms of kitchen staff and customers in this lively scene. In the window are rows of Peking Duck with their skins cooked a crispy dark brown. Meanwhile, surrounded by cooking utensils and implements, the tools of their trade, two chefs busy themselves in the kitchen area, one's face shows him to be ethnic Chinese who is rubbing his hands in a cloth before continuing his chores. Two European girls are waiting expectantly for their dishes to arrive. Obscured by the steam and heat, a waiter in green bustles about this small eaterie.

  • A passer-by stands next to a menu from a Chinese restaurant in Gerrard Street in London's Chinatown, England. The words Dim Sum Daily are displayed in neon lights above the person's head, its translated message is written on the top in Chinese characters. In the clear window we can see rows of Peking duck. It is early evening and the street is full of colour from the artificial lighting that creates an inviting mood for those browsing the menus on offer in this lively part of London's West End. The pedestrian is partly silhouetted and she stands in profile looking straight ahead as if ignoring what is on offer.

  • Pasted to the wall in Gerrard Street, Soho, in London's Chinatown, the Metropolitan Police are appealing for witnesses to help with their investigation of a murder of Vien Xuan Cao, a Chinese immigrant who was murdered in this street after being attacked with a meat cleaver. The implication is that this was a Triad turf war, a territorial dispute between gang members of this secret society. We see the young man's face photocopied to the paperwork, laid over more traditional images of ethnic Chinese and a boxing contest promotional poster. "Can you Help?" reads the Police's appeal and alongside, the same text has been translated into Chinese for locals to read.
