  • An elderly lady walks slowly with her shopping trolley across a road on the Aylesbury Estate, on 4th September 2018, in Southwark, London, England. The Aylesbury Estate contained 2,704 dwellings in approximately 7500 residents and built between 1963 and 1977 and for decades it was seen as a symbol of the failure of British social housing. There were major problems with the physical buildings on the estate and the poor perception of estates in Britain as a whole have led to the Aylesbury Estate gaining the title of one of the most notorious estates in the United Kingdom. Demolition is in progress for the regeneration of the Aylesbury Estate to consist of 3,500 new homes, 50% of which, according to Southwark council, will be affordable.

  • A local lady shopper passes-by a Closed Road sign on a hill in south London during wintry snows. Rather than drive to her local supermarket, the woman has instead parked her car in a safer place and walked to where she can stock up on provisions. She has made her way up the incline from the shop and looks over to the sign telling others that this road is temporily shut to vehicles. During a mid-winter morning, when commuters are struggling to reach their work places, the capital also finds it hard for transport and infrastructure to keep running as normal. Local councils facing government cuts also find it hard to maintain services during such challenging conditions.

  • We are looking from behind a group of red uniformed meat market traders who are manhandling joints of pork from the back of a meat wagon at Macau's main meat market, on the Rua Sul do Mercado de Sao Domingos, just off the Avenida de Almeida Ribeiro, in Central Macau. The men have on hooded red tunics that hide the bloodstains of dead animal carcasses, a very practical choice of colour (color). One man has half a pig on his shoulders while another holds a leg in his left hand. The animal carcasses look heavy and they are both struggling under their weight. There is much more meat to be offloaded from the truck and the men queue up to take their turn and remove them for sale inside the market building. Besides historical Chinese and Portuguese world-heritage relics, Macau's biggest attraction is its gaming business. Its gambling revenue in 2006 weighed in at a massive £3.6bn - about £100m more than Las Vegas.  Administered by Portugal until 1999, it was the oldest European colony in China, dating back to the 16th century. The administrative power over Macau was transferred to the People's Republic of China (PRC) in 1999, 2 years after Hong Kong's own handover. Macau's name is derived from A-Ma-Gau or Place of A-Ma and this temple dedicated to the seafarers' goddess dates from the early 16th century.
