  • An English caucasian lady smiles at something of interest to the viewer's right. She is a wrinkled female in her sixties, a healthy person with her own original teeth and whose untidy hair is greying and whose skin is slightly tanned under a summer sun. She wears a blue shirt with a wide collar, fashionable in the 1980s (eighties) and has a bemused, attentive expression as if entertained by something of humour out of frame. This is someone's mother and grandmother, at an age when her hard-working life is nearly over and her pension is hopefully covering her everyday needs.

  • Female vet, Diana Stapleton is ecstatically happy after successfully delivering twin calves to Fresian cow at Manor House Farm, Barnoldswick near Settle, North Yorkshire, England. With the two youngsters spread on the soft straw of the barn, and their mother facing the corner of the outhouse with the resulting afterbirth still attached, Diana makes her sense of achievement clear to the farmer who must also be relived about the positive outcome. The survival of twin cattle births depends on thorough training and an instinct for animal husbandry and medical requirements. Diana Stapleton belonged to the Dalehead Veterinary Group based in nearby Settle for 15 years, covering a 20-mile area of 500 remote farms though she specialised in small animals and farmwork before dying suddenly at the age of 39.

  • Preparation for showing in the bull class. The hairdryers are out and the shampoo is flowing at the Great Yorkshire Show, one of Britain's biggest agricultural shows. Its famous for its competitive displays of livestock. The event, established in 1837, attracts over 125 000 visitors a year and has over 10 000 entries to its pedigree competitions ranging from pigeons and rabbits to bulls and shire horses..At the heart of the show is the passion of the exhibitors who spend hundreds of hours ( and pounds)  training, preparing and grooming their animals. As one competitor put it ? I'm proud to say that the cattle are my friend, I have had cattle who have died and I have sat down and wept for them?

  • Winning and losing contestants line up to receive their prizes at a gymkhana in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. The point of focus is a young cheeky-faced girl adorned with a winners’ special rosette and she grins cheekily to her friend alongside. Far right another girl less satisfied inspects her own rosette. The word gymkhana is an Indian Raj term that referred to a place where sporting events took place to test the skill of the competitors. In the UK and east coast of the US, the term gymkhana now almost always refers to an equestrian event for riders on horses, often with the emphasis on children's participation (such as those organised here by the Pony Club). Gymkhana classes include timed speed events such as barrel racing, keyhole, keg race (also known as "down and back"), flag race, and pole bending.

  • Two police officers wearing face masks cross the canal locks by Broadway Market during the second coronavirus national lockdown on November 7th 2020 Hackney, East London, United Kingdom. Too many people, according to social distance rules, gathered along parts of the canal and the police had to ask people to move on in places to respect the lockdown restrictions of social distancing. Soon after the police moved on, satisfied. The UK Government introduced a 4 week lockdown from November 5th - December 2nd to combat the coronavirus outbreak. It is the third day of the national lockdown and restrictions mean that people are only allowed to meet outside, in pairs and only if keeping social distance. Only if they already live together or have formed a social bubble can they interact freely.

  • Vertical jets create a curtain of water as a child flexes his muscles, shivering from cold water cold and other young Londoner children spontaneously shed their clothes and get wet in a splash experience at the South Bank during the free Mayor's Thames Festival celebration along the capital's river. In the heat of summer, when the capital's temperatures have climbed to levels when urban children just want to play in any water they can find, this feature on the upper-level of the newly-renovated Festival Hall (seen on the left) satisfies their reckless and thrilling childhood, allowing them to await ever-changing jets of water pressure that alternates between off and on. The kids are drenched as they find themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time.

  • Four office workers are outside their place of employment in central London for a quick cigarette break. Puffing guiltily on their fags that have sought a dark place on the pavement beneath some shelter although it is warm enough for two of the men to wear only shirts and ties while the only lady present is in a jumper. One member of the group draws heavily on his cigarette, a sign of his addiction and enjoyment of taking a five or ten-minute pause from his office job. A recent report showed smokers each lose an average of 30 minutes a day from their  workplaces to satisfy their habit. The average smoker takes at least three breaks from the office, each lasting around 10 minutes, research for the Benenden Healthcare Society found. The healthcare group estimates that 290,000 working days are being lost by people leaving their office to smoke.

  • Aspirational illustration of future housing development where gentrification is happening in Camberwell, south London. The illustration conveys a fantasy for many, for a quality lifestyle in affordable housing though the reality is far from this as ordinary people struggle to afford a place to live of their own. Camberwell is undergoing massive change as new flats and apartments are built to satisfy the government's need to develop housing for a population desperate for new homes. The image and graffiti seem to have been written as a no hope, disrespect to those wanting their own property.
