  • The coincidental relationship between a direct marketing company poster and a man checking messages outside in the rain on a central london street. While the man on the poster seemingly enjoys the thrill of receiving a package we also see an outsider on a rainy pavement also looking down, this time at his smartphone.

  • Soon after setting sail from Miami, en-route to Cancun in Mexico, passengers of Carnival Cruise's Fun Ship Ecstasy liner are told to report on the top sun deck for the obligatory safety drill. Told to fetch their life vests from their respective cabins and suites, they have gathered at various muster points around the vessel to hear the crews' instructions about abandoning ship or the precuations needed to enter the water. We look down from a higher deck to see several dozen tourists on red vests, milling around awaiting the signal to return to their previous activities and entertainment. Operators like US-owned Carnival take these drills very seriously. Carnival was a pioneer in the concept of cheaper and shorter cruises. Its ships are known for their Las Vegas decor and entertainment. The cruise line calls its ships The Fun Ships and the MS Ecstasy is a Fantasy class cruise ship featuring two pools, whirlpools, a variety of dining options, nightclubs, a casino, and duty-free shopping. After Hurricane Katrina, she spent six months in New Orleans serving as quarters for refugees and relief workers. She suffered heavy damage in 1998 after the laundry room in the ship's stern caught fire damaging much of her stern and aft section.

  • Jogger runs past Nike shop window in central London. It is almost dark on this evening in the city and a runner passes the Nike shop in London's Covent Garden. Echoing the shop mannequin that has been placed carefully in a classic athlete's position, they both stride from left to right in the darkening street. Nike is one of the world's largest suppliers of athletic shoes and apparel and a major manufacturer of sports equipment, with revenue in excess of US$24.1 billion in its fiscal year 2012 (ending May 31, 2012). As of 2012, it employed more than 44,000 people worldwide. In 2014 the brand alone was valued at $19 billion, making it the most valuable brand among sports businesses.

  • A bus advert for the musical Billy Elliott drives past a construction hoarding featuring giant birds in flight spreading wings. As the bus swings right, turning away from this street corner near Leicester Square, we see the character Billy leaping in the air as, in the story of a working class boy during the 1980s minor's strike, becomes a student of ballet, he dances his way to a different future. The large birds behind echo his flight and outstretched arms.

  • Woman pedestrian walks past bent railings in a London street. In a perfectly-timed picture, the lady strides past the damaged railings, twisted by a vehicle, perhaps - or by someone with strong tools. Her legs are perfectly aligned with the angle of bent steel uprights - now reshaped into diagonals. The street is underoing massive change due to the capital's Crossrail project where pedestrian disruption actually encourages people to walk a shorter route in the road, rather than the safer pavement.

As a mimic to the retail design in the background, we see the bags as a pile of contained shapes in Long Acre in London's Covent Garden. The refuse of emptied local litter bins by street sweepers, they are destined for recycling or landfill - the waste of modern city and developed western society, happy to offload its waste to unknown places.

With a theme of stripes that appear on the window and the walls of the doorway, we see the wealth of a modern society where a father can feed his family at the table - versus the poverty of the unfortunate, a man so desperate he has to sleep in the open air on a hot Spring day, his hand outstretched asking for passers-by to offer loose change in a crushed pot. The latest annual figures show that 6,437 people were seen rough sleeping in London in 2012-13, compared with 5,768 the previous year, a 13% rise year on year and an increase of 62% since 2010-11.

  • The texture of wall plaster echoed in the skin of a theatrical character in the San Marco shopping district of Venice, Italy. The unknown character appearing in a part during July 2015 is a disturbing, ugly old hag of a woman with bad teeth and an empty eye socket. Her loose skin is pallid and is echoed in the taut, crumbling nature of the plaster render.

  • A street theme of road marking and another yellow arrow on a central London wall. The urban landscape is seen on a wet day in the capital where arrows are the repeating theme on the road surface and pavement. Yellow lines disappear down a narrow lane, turning around the corner and out of sight. On the otherwise wet and dark day, the colours are vibrant and highly visible.

  • A woman consumer carrying a spotty shopping bag passes a window theme of dots in the window of Etro on Old Bond Street, central London. Walking past the display of three mannequins wearing stylish clothing is a coincidental scene, a humerous moment in the life of this exclusive street in the capital known for fine couture and jewellery of luxury brands. The background is a video playing on a continuous loop alternately featuring spots and stripes.

  • A construction hoarding showing London's Shard skyscraper and Give Way triangle at a road junction in south London. As a visual rhyme, we see the echoes of shapes and geometry, a repeating of triangles and diagonals - a geometric shape and a skyscraper with scale and perspective. Standing 306 metres (1,004 ft) high, the Shard is currently the tallest building in the European Union, by Italian architect Renzo Piano that dominates this borough of Southwark in south London.

In a scene of pinks, a tall, elegant young woman strides past carrying spotted bags in the crook of her elbow, with Ugg boots on her feet. To her left is s smaller, fatter woman in a pink winter coat who is about to struggle with another pink wheelie suitcase up some steps  near Liverpool Street station in the City of London.

  • Construction workmen with a 'Stop Go' sign to help traffic flow plus a coincidental 'no lights' sign at a closed crossing. Returning to the building site, the man walks back to the opened gates after stopping traffic, allowing a truck to leave the development and re-join local traffic. This visual pun is complete with a temporary sign that tells drivers that normal traffic lights are inoperative.

  • A tourist is surrounded by a flock of greedy gulls hovering above on London's Southbank, opposite the Westminster parliament. Echoing the birds' wings, the young lady has an arm outstretched and she entices the birds to flock around her head and the avian creatures swarm excitedly in the air above. In the background is the expanse of Westminster Bridge with the Houses of Parliament and the tall clock tower containing the Big Ben bell.

  • Woman cleaner pulling a vacuum hover behind her, walks past a fashion poster in central London. Roksanda Ilincic—the British designer known for her colourful, feminine wares with a sculptural twist—revealed today that, early next year, she’ll bow her first store at 9 Mount Street. Having studied Architecture and Applied Arts at university in Belgrade, her designs are soon to fill finished windows in Mayfair, central London.

  • King Henry VIII (8th) on a construction hoarding alongside a red standing pedestrian light in central London. Henry is seen in his most famous guise, as an obese middle-aged Tudor monarch, striking his famous pose symbolising power and wealth. He adorns the outer face of the hoarding at 55 St James's in London, a street in Westminster known more for 18th century opulence and style, rather than Tudor culture. His appearance is juxtaposed to a red pedestrian light that mimics the royal pose.

  • Matching coloured suitcase and shopping bag in a central London street. We look down to pavement level to see the matching colours of the baggage that coincidentally share the same pavement space on this midsummer afternoon in the capital. One his being held and the other is pulled along.

  • A stripes theme of a London bus promoting the Philippines as a travel destination and reflective designs on the outside a Threadneedle Street building in the City of London. A Londoner walks along the street, passing the bus that's stopped at lights. The scene is at a slant and we see the Filipino countryside of rice terraces with striped rugs, products of that Asian country wanting to attract more foreign tourism from Europe.

  • A banksman working on a nearby building site, holds his Stop sign under the large circles of a construction hoarding on central London's Oxford Street. Standing against the side of the hoarding, the worker awaits the next truck to exit the site for which he'll again stop traffic and allow a safe passage to the industrial vehicle. We see the curves and concentric circles of circles, as if a target from an unseen enemy.

  • Young couple eat outside the spotted shop window of Urban Outfitters in central London. To contrast the spotty theme in the window we see instead a sign looming large in the scene that tells drivers on the road that the traffic lights on this junction are inoperative - but they also seem to tell us that spots are forbidden, disallowed in this urban landscape.

  • Bird theme construction theme hoarding in central London. During the renovation of this large building on the western end of Leicester Square, developers have designed the hoarding to reflect pigeon population long residing in this quarter of inner London. Although the feeding of birds is nowadays discouraged, tourists still drop crumbs and so pigeons still thrive, though not in the previous numbers of years ago.

  • A theme of locked and pedalled bikes on reflected lit street corner in the City of London. In a bright area of reflected sunlight, we see a wide section of a road junction near the 1980s Broadgate development where pedestrians and cyclists share the urban landscape. A bike is locked up against a tree; another at a distant pole while a third is being ridden towards the T-junction.

  • A discarded broken umbrella and a person walking past with a brolley shop bag in Charing Cross Road, central London. Coincidentally, the woman carries a shopping bag for a London branch of Hackett whose logo is a bowler hat and pair of crossed umbrellas, the sign of quality and Britishness. Someone has thrown the item on the ground, partially-collapsed but now forgotten - the remnant of a person's wet day in the capital. Transport continues too and the red London bus edges past in heavy traffic in the borough of Westminster.

  • A lady wearing a red dress with black polka dots locks her bike near a red public telephone kiosk. Bending over to attach the lock that might prevent a bike thief - common in the capital and other cities in the UK - she echoes the red of the phone box in Russel Street, the heart of London's theatreland. The red kiosk stands as an iconic piece of architecture that has graced Britain's towns and villages for 70-odd years. These K-series kiosks were largely designed in 1936 by the renowned designer Giles Gilbert Scott. With the increasing use of mobile phones the static phone boxes are still used in remote areas of the UK where mobile service is still patchy and in major towns and cities, their presence is becoming rarer.

  • A man with a Union Jack rusksack walks past a matching discarded covered box left on the corner of construction hoarding plyboard in Trafalgar Square, London. With the backdrop of plyboard composite that acts as a construction screen on this busy pavement, the landscape is a juxtaposition of an incongruous feature in central London - a statement of coincidence and national quirkiness.

  • Three young tourists boys carry identical tour rucksacks beneath blue banners across Regent Street, central London. From a low angle we look up to the lads making their way beneath the banners that hang across one of the capital's bust shopping streets. Their matching blue packs have perhaps been given to them by Study Tours, an organisation offering cheap student travel, guided student tours, weekend tours and day trips.
