  • Three beautifully-dressed horses with their rider parade through the streets of Seville in Andalucia, Spain during the city’s Spring Feria. Adorned in baubles and tassels the animals are on their best behaviour for the crowds who watch an equestrian display of horses and decorated carriages that wind their way through the city and fairground. La Feria de Sevilla began as a cattle trading fair in 1847, and through the years it has evolved into a sexy Spanish round-the-clock spectacle of flamenco, bullfighting and rowdy fun. Seville holds its annual fair in rows of temporary marquee casetas, hosting families and friends which begin during the April Fair two weeks after the Semana Santa, or Easter Holy Week in the Andalusian capital.

  • A domesticated Asian elephant decorated ready for the procession at the annual Sayaboury elephant festival, Sayaboury province, Lao PDR. Originally created by ElefantAsia in 2007, the 3-day elephant festival takes place in February in the province of Sayaboury with over 80,000 local and international people coming together to experience the grand procession of decorated elephants. It is now organised by the provincial government of Sayaboury.The Elephant Festival is designed to draw the public's attention to the condition of the endangered elephant, whilst acknowledging and celebrating the ancestral tradition of elephant domestication and the way of life chosen by the mahout. Laos was once known as the land of a million elephants but now there are fewer than 900 living in the country. Around 470 of them are in captivity, traditionally employed by a lucrative logging industry. Elephants are trained and worked by a mahout (handler) whose relationship to the animal is often described as a marriage and can last a lifetime. But captive elephants are often overworked and exhausted and as a consequence no longer breed. With only two elephants born for every ten that die, the Asian elephant, the sacred national emblem of Laos, is under serious threat of extinction.

  • Display of curtains (drapes) in a central London street shop window. Arranged in a neat display across the width of the window are the fabrics of someone's future home, the tastes being traditional and slightly retrospective with the quality reflected in the low prices, seen on labels alongside the material. A building is under construction in the background, across the road with a crane seemingly lifting the tassel that dangles from the store's ceiling.
