  • With the companionship of a pet dog, an elderly gentleman reminisces about the good old days with a life-long buddy at Alexandra Terrace, in the south Wales town of Abertillery (Welsh: Abertyleri). Together they lean against a stone wall of a road above and look down the hill of their street they may have lived all their lives. In the distance, a younger generation of young girls play at the far end. The men might once have been working men, old coal miners like many folk in this community whose  population rose steeply during the period of (now defunct) mining development in South Wales, being 10,846 in 1891 and 21,945 ten years later.

  • A cloaked guide stands surrounded by a younger generation in beachwear, on a poster background in Burlington Arcade in central London. Standing still in the cold of a winter's day, the man is dressed in his dark and heavy cloak that helps keep him warm. But as the antithesis of winter days we see the summertime representted by the young people in summer swimming costumes, enjoying the warmth of a coastal pool, showing off the health and beauty of youth. It is a picture of generations, of seasons and wealth.

  • While crowds wave Union Jack flags a re-enactment soldier shows a youngster wearing a WW2 costume how to use a Thompson sub-machine gun - remembering the 50th anniversary of VE (Victory in Europe) Day on 6th May 1995. In the week near the anniversary date of May 8, 1945, when the World War II Allies formally accepted the unconditional surrender of the armed forces of Germany and peace was announced to tumultuous crowds across European cities, the British still go out of their way to honour those sacrificed and the realisation that peace was once again achieved. Street parties now – as they did in 1945 – played a large part in the country’s patriotic well-being.

Vermin like rats ran around and public city parks filled with every kind of refuse and garbage. Few of these back-to-backs exist after being cleared to allow construction of high-rise tower-blocks and flats.

  • Children play in a desolate street in the town of Nova Huta. Amid the filthy walls of their tenement building home and of the grim, car less street beyond, two older children play in their doorway while younger friends peer from around a corner. It is horribly depressing and unhealthy place to grow up and these children are pale and yet seem happy, with smiles on their faces. The famous steel works can be seen at the end of the street. After the war, Stalin decided to build an ideological communist fantasy just outside Krakow: a model town and immense steelworks of the future. The steelworks was named after Lenin and the town would be called Nova Huta. At its peak, 27,000 people worked at the Lenin Steelworks. But Solidarity grew strong forcing strikes over pay and recognition over their union. Today, it is an economic and ecological disaster area.

  • Two young ‘Scouse' girls sit on a telephone junction box and against a brick wall on which there is graffiti and childish scribbles. They are near a back alleyway between poor terraced housing in Liverpool, England. The older, taller girl is of Asian-descent and the younger is White British who hides her face with her top. Both are facing other activity in this inner-city street where there are 'back to back' houses in a poor area, South of the city centre and home to deprived families. Few of these back-to-backs exist after being cleared to allow construction of high-rise tower-blocks and flats.

  • Locals look at street life below from the crumbling balconies of their old apartment block in Lisbon's Biarro Alto district. The woman holds her pet dog and a younger man leans on his arms, supported by rickety railings in afternoon sunshine. Bairro Alto is one of the oldest districts in Lisbon. Dozens of fado singing clubs animate the area. All major Portuguese newspapers once had their offices in here. Prostitution was visible and considerable. Since the 1990s, Bairro Alto went through major changes. Lisbon's city council made extensive repairs, and dozens of new restaurants, clubs and trendy shops were opened. Many young people moved into the area. Cars were banned (except for residents and emergency vehicles).

  • An elderly Hungarian woman pauses to count her Forints and Fillér change, the national currency. She stands at the top of stairs near a well-lit window in the market which the largest indoor market in the Hungarian capital and is where this lady and many other market traders converge on every weekday morning to sell their own produce. The flower and herb woman has a lined face suggesting she has had a hard life under a Communist regime. She still wears a traditional Hungarian covered head favoured by older people in rural communities but is now dying out as headwear for a younger generation. The forint is the only currency once used by a socialist European state that is still in circulation. As a member of the European Union, the long term aim of the Hungarian government is to replace the forint with the euro.

  • As if separated by many decades, we see an older generation beach guard from a bygone era and a much younger lifeguard, both resting on the seafront of the posh Essex seaside town of Frinton-on-Sea, England. If simply comparing the colour schemes of the past, to the modern day, we might guess that in the gentleman on the right’s day, people wore more formal blues, with collar and tie and polished shoes on the hottest day - reminiscent of Victorian times when pomp and tradition rather than practicalities were important . Nowadays, complimentary reds and yellows adorn the uniform of the lad trained in water injuries and life-saving. He is barefoot and sits comfortably against the sea defence wall in peak cap and t-shirt. This is a scene describing the generation gap, of youth versus experience - the classic English seaside holiday.

  • It is late on a summer Somerset evening and light is fading towards bedtime for children. Clutching a small bunch of daisies, a five year-old girl gazes at one of her flowers as if held in a trance. Standing in a meadow belonging to her grandfather, she holds up a single stem and twirls it around in her fingers to see its shape and sense its smell. About to climb over a gate in the background, her younger brother is having an adventure of his own, standing on the metal horizontal part of the frame, holding on with one hand. It is a tranquil scene of childhood innocence, of long summer days and summer holidays. From a personal documentary project entitled "Next of Kin" about the photographer's two children's early years spent in parallel universes. Model released.

  • On a wooden boardwalk that stretches across a sandy beach landscape, a young girl runs at full speed away from her mother and younger brother who walk along this walkway on the beach at Calais, France. It is low-tide, hazy winter sunshine makes soft shadows on the sand but there are few people out in the cold beyond except for a family in the surf approximately 200 yards away in the distance. Half-way back to the shore is a lone lifebelt attached to its pole in case of emergency. This near-deserted beach is an idyllic and tranquil place, allowing children to let off steam.

  • A four year-old girl throws a tantrum while playing with her young two-year-old brother in the back garden of their South London home. We look down on the small girl who throws her head back in a rage, mouth wide open, after not getting what she wants. But in the background, her younger sibling is oblivious to her emotional outburst and gets on with playing at the foot of a children’s garden slide - in an innocent world of his own.

  • City workers enjoy a lunchtime siesta in summer sunshine under solid Corinthian pillars of the Royal Exchange in City of London. With his tie askew and loosened around his neck, a successful businessman sits on a bench below the war memorial and tall pillars of this Victorian market building in the heart of London’s financial district. Alongside is an older, less prosperous man whose rumpled coat gives us the sense that he might be less accomplished than the younger gentleman. There is a heat wave in the capital and officer workers have come out into the sunshine to unwind and snatch a quick sleep in parks and open spaces. The neo-Romanesque Royal Exchange building also has Doric and Ionic columns with their ornate stonework, strong lintels with carvings featuring the design by Sir William Tite in 1842-1844 and opened in 1844 by Queen Victoria.

  • Two businessmen - one younger than the other, who may be his superior - pace through the Broadgate Estate during a break in the working day in the City of London, the capital's financial centre - otherwise called the Square Mile. Seen as they walk fast under a covered alleyway, the warm sun strikes their faces while they are deep in conversation - perhaps discussing a strategy while fetching a local coffee. Deep shadow allows us to focus in on their dark suits, their pink skin and the similarly orange colour of the strong vertical columns that form this urban architecture completed in the Bishopsgate development of the mid-1980s. Broadgate is a large, 32 acres (129,499 m2) office and retail estate in the City of London, owned by British Land and managed by Broadgate Estates.

  • An elderly gentleman wearing a traditional bowler hat and carrying a folded newspaper descends the steps from the bright daylight to the dark of the London Underground, before making his way home from Royal Exchange at Bank Triangle by tube. He is one of the last examples of a bygone age, when many in London's financial district wore such work clothes - a way of typifying a breed of Englishness and class system, known all over, and still expected, around the world. Sadly, gents like this are very rare after modern fashions, lower standards and changed attitudes in the workplace meant that younger men no longer wanted to wear a stuffy outfit to work. The days of the bowler are fast disappearing. Behind him are the tall and solid Corinthian pillars of the 3rd Royal Exchange built in 1842 by Sir William Tite.

  • Statue of Italian painter Giorgione (1477/1510) in Castelfranco Veneto, Italy. Giorgione born Giorgio Barbarelli da Castelfranco was an Italian painter of the Venetian school in the High Renaissance from Venice, whose career was cut off by his death at a little over 30. Giorgione is known for the elusive poetic quality of his work, though only about six surviving paintings are acknowledged for certain to be his work. Together with Titian, who was slightly younger, he is the founder of the distinctive Venetian school of Italian Renaissance painting, which achieves much of its effect through colour and mood, and is traditionally contrasted with the reliance on the more linear disegno-led style of Florentine painting.

  • Bodyboards on sale in the north Devon coastal village of Combe Martin. Various characters from the movie industry are represented on the top surfaces, attracting the younger buyer. The bodyboard differs from a surfboard in the fact that it is much shorter and made out of foam. Bodyboarding has been around since ancient Hawaiian days, it was called "Paipo" and was made out of koa wood. The modern board consists of a foam 'core' encapsulated by a plastic bottom and a softer foam top known as the deck. The core is made up from dow/polyethylene, arcel or, more recently, polypropylene.

  • Gathered beneath the outer walls of the 15th century Church of St John the Baptist, a flock of Anglican pilgrims ready for a procession through the ancient Christian and pagan town of Glastonbury. Banners from their parish churches show illustrations for their Saints such as St Andrew and St Mark while an angel looks down on another. A young choir boy looks down at his feet, a middle-aged Church of England vicar holds his banner and a much younger member of a congregation stands with a polished silver cross. Glastonbury is notable for myths and legends about Joseph of Arimathea, the Holy Grail and King Arthur and in Arthurian literature Glastonbury is identified with the legendary island of Avalon. Medieval monks at the abbey even claimed to have found the graves of Arthur and Guinevere and the place is also said to be the centre of several ley lines.

  • A picture of Mao Zeming, Mao Zedong's younger brother, hangs in Zeming's bedroom at their former home and birthplace in Shaoshan, Hunan Province, China on 12 August 2009.  The village of Shaoshan, in rural Hunan Province, is tiny in size but big in name. It was the childhood home for Mao Zedong, the controversial revolutionary who came from obscurity but eventually defied all odds conquered China in the name of communism. Now his home, a sacred place among China's official propaganda, is in reality a microcosm of the country itself: part commercialism, part superstition, with a dash of communist ideological flavor.
