  • An engineer working underground during construction of the Heathrow Express train project on behalf of Heathrow airport operator BAA (British Airport Authority), London England. While standing erect, he twists a high-tension tool that secures the concrete sleepers to the steel rails using a Pandrol Clip. The tunnel snakes its way into the distance behind him, lit by temporary lighting on the 5-mile tunnel wall. Its sections are reinforced concrete, shaped for the Heathrow Express electric Siemens-built trains that provide a direct link between Heathrow's terminals and Paddington station in central London. This is now the most expensive rail-mile fare in the UK at £15.50 for a 15-minute journey. In 1994 one tunnel collapsed without warning in one of the most catastrophic civil engineering disasters in British history.

  • A man sleeps in mid-afternoon sunshine on the steps of Royal Exchange opposite the Bank of England in the City of London, taking a nap in the heart of the capital’s financial district. A red double-decker Routemaster bus has stopped in a queue of traffic opposite with an advert for London buses saying ‘We’ve got to get this city to work’ but with tattoos on his arms and his forehead and wearing heavy army-style boots, he is clearly not on his way to a job and therefore out-of-place in this busy part of London. With arms folded and head resting on an unseasonal coat, the man is asleep and going nowhere.

  • A man dressed in a dark suit and tie, shoes and socks lies down on his matching jacket for a short rest - perhaps during a lunchtime break from an office job - and stretches out on the incline of Blackpool seafront. In the background is Blackpool Tower, an architectural copy of Paris' Eiffel Tower opened to the public on 14 May 1894 and rises to 158m (518 ft 9 inches). As a sort of English eccentric character, the man looks incongruous as he sleeps in sunshine amid other holidaymakers. This northern seaside resort in the north-west of England is diverse in its transient holiday population whose behaviour can be routinely odd. Blackpool is the largest resort in the north of England and visited traditionally by working people from industrial towns and cities during the industrial revolution.

  • An elderly Egyptian sleeps in the mid-day shade of a mud-splattered wall in the village of Bairat on the West Bank of Luxor, Nile Valley, Egypt. Stretched out on an upturned wooden box, the old man dozes peacefully at a time during the day when people stay indoors and sleep in their homes or businesses until cooler air once again flows through villages and cities alike.

  • During a weekday lunchtime in the City of London, a young man sleeps on the grass in St. Paul's Churchyard, near the outer walls of the cathedral. Office workers have gathered with friends and colleagues taking advantage of warm weather to lie on the grass and eat their lunches. The man is asleep on the short lawn, having spent 20 minutes fiddling with his iPhone, scrolling through messages and sending emails after finishing his own sandwich, which has been put away next to his prone body, in a plastic bag. A council worker pushes a wheelbarrow along the path laden with refuse as the young man lies resting before another afternoon at his nearby desk.

  • It is late in the City of London, long after offices workers have left their desks in the capital's financial district. But some  commuters like this young man have stayed behind in the Square Mile (the oldest, historic quarter first inhabited by the Romans) to drink with friends. He has consumned so much alcohol that he's passed-out, asleep on a bench on the platform at Bank station, immediately beneath the busy streets at the Bank of England. The station is otherwise deserted and is possibly just before - or after - the last train has left to take others home in the east end or the west.

  • A Big Issue seller walks past a property company's construction hoarding, a night time panorama of  Thames riverside properties. The temporary hoarding will stay in place for the time that the company's new residential riverfront apartments are under construction. In the image, the river Thames bends round to Westminster as the man walks past. The Big Issue is a small-budget magazine started in 1991 by Gordon Roddick and A. John Bird in response to the growing number of rough sleepers on the streets of London. The two believed that the key to solving the problem of homelessness lay in helping people to help themselves. Vendors buy their magazines with their own money and sell them at their own profit or loss.

  • With dozens of deck chairs behind him, a sleeping middle-aged man lies bare-chested with a flat cap on his head and with his socks on as all Englishmen tend to do during a summer heat wave. He has chosen a spot in a near-empty Hyde Park in central London - an oasis of calm  amid a bustling city – where a seat in a striped deck chair can be rented for a few Pounds for the day and one can snooze topless without being bothered and one’s stresses of daily life can be momentarily forgotten. With one hand resting on his leg, the other reaches down to hold on to his shoulder bag which is in the shade on the short grass.
