  • A fisherman repairs a fishing net outside his home in the Khmu village of Ban Seua-Thiek, Phongsaly province, Lao PDR. The remote and roadless village of Ban Seua-Thiek is situated along the Nam Ou river (a tributary of the Mekong) and will be relocated due to the construction of the Nam Ou Cascade Hydropower Project Dam 5. The Nam Ou river connects small riverside villages and provides the rural population with food for fishing. But this river and others like it, that are the lifeline of rural communities and local economies are being blocked, diverted and decimated by dams. The Lao government hopes to transform the country into ‘the battery of Southeast Asia’ by exporting the power to Thailand and Vietnam.

  • Workman feed yellow plastic tubing through an under pavement shaft to clear a subterranean blockage, working beneath a round pastry post ad. The works are outside a corner shop (store) in the south London district of Waterloo (celebrating the famous battle victory by Wellington over Napoleon in 1815) and the site is half-covered by a barrier that prevents pedestrians from falling down the opened manhole cover on the pavement (sidewalk). The two men force-feed the plastic piping to free whatever is obstructing the route to another site 50 metres down the street. The visual pun of the coiled cabling and the swirls of the Danish pastries make for a humorous scene.

  • Mr Massoudi,  Director of the  National Museum of Afghanistan pictured next to a statue recently restored after the Taliban smashed it to pieces. Overall the Taliban smashed 2000 museum exhibits and more famously two colossal Buddhas in Bamiyan ‘because they were "false idols" contrary to Islam.  Mr Massouudi with the help of the international community has rebuilt and reopened his museum and is now seeking to recover and restore the many artifacts either looted in the civil war or smashed by the Taliban:<br />
"They took the decision that artefacts such as statues, or anything representing the human figure, was against Sharia Islam . Looking at statues as part of history, is not the same as worshiping them. It was an extremely sad time not just for me, but all museum staff , cultural and educated people in Afghanistan. They destroyed around 2000 artefacts.”
