  • A young, vulnerable-looking youth stands close to two members of a local Evangelical church who are using a carpet warehouse as a temporary Ministry. Rolls of carpets and rugs are behind these Christians as the two officials practice the 'laying on of hands' to cleanse the soul of their young convert during a religious meeting in Newport, Wales. As the ceremony takes place when this boy is persuaded to accept Jesus into his life, two retail signs proclaim the prices and credit terms of the household items.

In Christian churches, this practice is used as both a symbolic and formal method of invoking the Holy Spirit during baptisms, healing services, blessings, and ordination of priests, ministers, elders, deacons, and other holy church ceremonies.

The minor bridge spans the canal where various barges and boats ply various trades including this seller of fruit and veg at more reasonable prices than the hundreds of cafes and restaurants. As the visitors climb the steep steps, they leave their shadows on a screen there to shade the produce from hot afternoon sunshine. Waterways are used heavily for deliveries of supplies, goods being sold and consumed before the influx of tourists who, in their own way, flood the narrow streets and smaller canals with gondolas.
