  • A middle-aged man walks beneath the sign of the London Stock Exchange at their old premises known as the Tower.  The gent looks hunched as if with all the troubles of the world on his shoulders, a pessimistic view on the world. He makes a sorrowful figure with such a strong presence against the wall shadow. Three years after the so-called Big Bang in 1986, this location at the old Stock Exchange Tower became redundant with the advent of the Big Bang, which deregulated many of the Stock Exchange's activities as it enabled an increased use of computerised systems that allowed dealing rooms to take precedence over face to face trading. Thus, in 2004, the House moved to a brand new headquarters in Paternoster Square, close to St Paul's Cathedral.

  • Construction in the capital where The Pinnacle project is on hold on Bishopsgate in the City of London. Construction work has been suspended again on the Pinnacle in the City of London. Contractor Brookfield is understood to have been told to stop work following more funding concerns over the Square Mile’s tallest tower. Brookfield restarted work last September after developer Arab Investments put together a new finance package. But a lack of a pre-let tenant has now caused further delays on site leaving Byrne Bros concrete cores standing idle. The Bishopsgate Tower, informally referred to as The Pinnacle, was to be a 288 m (945 ft), 64-storey skyscraper in the centre of London's main financial district.

  • A Catholic confessional between a penitent parishioner and her local priest at St. Lawrence's Catholic church in Feltham, London. While kneeling to face the priest, the lady speaks in absolute confidence and secrecy to a screen beyond which the man listens and offers spiritual advice. A confessional is a small, enclosed booth used for the Sacrament of Penance, often called confession, or Reconciliation. Usually, the priest and penitent are in separate compartments and speak to each other through a grid or lattice and a crucifix hangs over the grille. But here, a screen grille inserted in it separates the two. The penitent may be able to see the priest through the screen, but the priest can usually never see the penitent - hearing instead of the person's sinful admissions.

  • A Catholic confessional between a penitent parishioner and her local priest at St. Lawrence's Catholic church in Feltham, London. While kneeling to face the priest, the lady speaks in absolute confidence and secrecy to a screen beyond which the man listens and offers spiritual advice. A confessional is a small, enclosed booth used for the Sacrament of Penance, often called confession, or Reconciliation. Usually, the priest and penitent are in separate compartments and speak to each other through a grid or lattice and a crucifix hangs over the grille. But here, a screen grille inserted in it separates the two. The penitent may be able to see the priest through the screen, but the priest can usually never see the penitent - hearing instead of the person's sinful admissions.

  • Using the Latin motto 'Quis Separabit' meaning 'Who shall separate us?' we see a detail of a political painting in a street off the Shankhill Road in Belfast, Northern Ireland. This Loyalist mural may have been drawn by a paramilitary artist, whose handiwork is the crest of the protestant Ulster Defence Association (UDA), the organisation behind many a sectarian action against neighbouring catholic supporters of the Irish republican Army (IRA). In loyalist areas, the red, white and blue of the British Union Jack is painted on kerbs, houses and railings to signify peoples’ allegiance to the crown, having historically followed the 17th century activities of King William of Orange against Catholics.

  • A London Underground employee wipes hard to remove the tagging left behind by permanent marker pens on London Transport property. A youth has committed the crime of defacement and criminal damage to London Underground property, a persistent problem that costs the transport company network up to £3 million a year to remove. Partitions and glass are being scribbled on with their unique identity signatures used by kids of this age to leave as a mark of their presence, like animals instinctively leave a scent on a street corner. If caught, juvenile delinquents like these may escape with only a caution because of their age but older ones are prosecuted, though some times after leaving many thousands of tags across their neighbourhood.
