  • A portrait of three brothers of the same family have their picture taken outside their parents' home in Westcliff, England. The eldest is a teenager of approximately 17 and  is holding his youngest brother who is still only 12 months-old. The third boy is biting his lip while looking to the viewer, more anxiously than the other two. He is possibly 14 but both the elder lads wear identically-designed jumpers that cut across the throat to allow their clean white shirts and ties to remain visible. Apart from the young child, the elders share the same dark hair colour but genetically, they share one chromosome that has given them heavy eyebrows, a family trait. This was taken on Kodachrome film stock in the spring of 1961 so the look and feel of the image is dated with wonderfully muted colours that this Kodak film offered to consumers in the early 60s.

  • World dictators (incl Syrian President Bashir al-Assad) adorn old sections of the old Berlin Wall opposite the former Checkpoint Charlie, the former border between Communist East and West Berlin during the Cold War. The Berlin Wall was a barrier constructed by the German Democratic Republic (GDR, East Germany) starting on 13 August 1961, that completely cut off (by land) West Berlin from surrounding East Germany and from East Berlin. The Eastern Bloc claimed that the wall was erected to protect its population from fascist elements conspiring to prevent the "will of the people" in building a socialist state in East Germany. In practice, the Wall served to prevent the massive emigration and defection that marked Germany and the communist Eastern Bloc during the post-World War II period.

  • Lunchtime Londoners rest in summer sunshine beneath a crucifix, 15th August 2016 in the City of London, UK. Siting on benches outside the church of St Andrew-by-the-Wardrobe on Queen Victoria Street. As the effigy of jesus seemingly looks down at her, the lady is asleep with head tilted at an awkward angle, a man sits with the remains of his lunch by his side. First mentioned around 1170, the church got its name when in 1361, Edward III moved his Royal Wardrobe to just north of the church. It was from this association that the church acquired its unique name. It was lost in the Great Fire of London in 1666 then rebuilt in 1695 and destroyed again by German bombing during WW2. when only the tower and walls survived. It was rebuilt and rededicated in 1961.
