  • City workers walk along a pedestrian pavement at Broadgate in the City of London. Seemingly walking in step, one female is among many other males, a gender inbalance for the workplace. Broadgate Estate is a large, 32 acre (129,000 m²) office and retail estate in the City of London, owned by British Land and managed by Broadgate Estates. It was originally built by Rosehaugh and was the largest office development in London until the arrival of Canary Wharf in the early 1990s. The City is a major business and financial centre. Throughout the 19th century, the City was perhaps the world's primary business centre, and it continues to be a major meeting point for businesses

  • In the late afternoon on a warm summer's day, drinkers enjoy a pint or two outside The Phoenix pub at Denmark Hill station, Camberwell, South London. Seated at tables and on benches, the friends and colleagues relax in the warm sunshine outside this Victorian station, built in 1865. Its design is in the Italianate style, with an extremely decorative frontage. After a fire in 1980 the building was renovated and restored. The project included the addition of the public house, initially called the Phoenix and Firkin to commemorate the fire, then called O'Neills and now known as the Phoenix. A Civic Trust award was given to the building in 1986.

  • Barbara Christie, 58, sits alone in her conservatory at Swordale House overlooking Beinn Na Caillich (The Hill of the Old Woman) mountain. It is nearly dark at this northern latitude and it looks cosy inside this house with its warm and inviting lights. Barbara's father built this family home and she has lived in this house all her life apart from when studying in Edinburgh many years ago. It sits on a tiny road near Broadford on the Isle of Skye, beneath the magnificent hill whose myth goes back to a Norse Princess saga. Barbara sits in the more recent addition to the house, a conservatory that she enjoys sitting and reading away from her Summer Bed and Breakfast guests. Image taken for the 'UK at Home' book project published 2008.

  • It is dawn in Calcutta, West Bengal, India and on the West bank of the Hooghly River the sun is rising from across the Howrah Bridge. The working day is beginning for this pedestrian seen carrying a large, heavy tank full of liquids, possibly on his way to market or a shop in Central Calcutta. Steady, he balances it weight though he can barely stretch up to grip the carrying handles. The bridge's engineering stretches across the water as the humanity cross to their businesses and markets. The British-built bridge is one of three on the Hooghly River and is a famous symbol of Kolkata and West Bengal. Bearing the daily weight of approximately 150,000 vehicles and 4,000,000 pedestrians. It is one of the longest bridges of its type in the world. The Hooghly River is an approximately 260 km long distributary of the Ganges River.

  • Fishing piers using square nets (known as a Carrelet) overlooking the river Gironde estuary at Talmont-sur-Gironde, Charente-Maritime, France. Dotted along the banks of the Gironde Estuary are countless wooden fishing huts which have been built on stilts. Their main implement is a square-shaped pulley-operated net (or “filet carré”) which has given the humble shacks their name: “carrelets”. Talmont-sur-Gironde is a commune in the Charente-Maritime department in the Poitou-Charentes region, 5 km (9.3 mi) south of Royan, on a small promontory which dominates the Gironde estuary.

  • Real remembrance wreaths on the ground at the foot of a black and white vintage era photograph that shows the Cenotaph, currently hiding the real monument being renovated in London's Whitehall. In a landscape of false perspective and confusing juxtapositions between reality and the reproduction of the picture, we see the famous war memorial in central London. The London Cenotaph was originally a temporary structure erected for a peace parade following the end of World War I, but following an outpouring of national sentiment it was replaced by a permanent structure and designated the United Kingdom's official war memorial. Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, the permanent structure was built from Portland stone between 1919 and 1920. 'Cenotaph' derives from the Greek kenotaphion (empty tomb).

  • Commuters at 5.30pm leaving the city crossing London Bridge, winter 1976. London Bridge, which opened to traffic in 1973, is a box girder bridge built from concrete and steel. This replaced a 19th-century stone-arched bridge, which in turn superseded a 600-year-old medieval structure. This was preceded by a succession of timber bridges, the first built by the Roman founders of London. Coming and Going is a project commissioned by the Museum of London for photographer Barry Lewis in 1976 to document the transport system as it is used by passengers and commuters using public transport by trains, tubes and buses in London, UK.

The wife appears to be asleep and has taken the prrecution against splinters from the pier's planks by spreading a tiny towell to rest her feet upon. She has dyed hair and large sun glasses and her bony legs are tanned and veined from much exposure to the sun. The husband is also fully-clothed with a loud checked jacket, black shoes and socks and he sits crossed-legged with a peaked cap and dark glasses with his hands across his belly. They are in a peaceful spot on this pier, a Victorian seaside structure built in 1899 for those taking the air to walk out onto the sea without getting their feet wet.

As part of Britain's coastal defences in the 1940s, beaches were mined and concrete bunkers  installed as lookouts facing out so sea and in the event of an invasion by German forces, as firing positions. Overhead, the Luftwaffe flew on their way to London during the Blitzkrieg. More recently, they have fallen into the sea after coastal erosion continues to wash the sedimentary soil (from the Eocene geological epoch of 52-51 million years ago) into the tidal waters of the Thames estuary. Chain Home Low Station at Warden Point was built in 1941 it stood on top of the cliffs then. Erosion of cliffs caused the remaining buildings to fall into the sea in the 1970s.

  • A lone woman jogger runs past purple construction hoarding and a green taxi drivers' shelter. The runner exercises on a bright afternoon in a side street in Temple Place, close to Waterloo bridge. The garish purple stripe of colour contrasts the green foreground belonging to the Victorian structure. Because cab drivers weren't allowed to leave their vehicles when parked at a stand, it was difficult for them to get a hot meal while at work, so The Earl of Shaftesbury (God bless 'im) and a few philanthropic chums decided to create a cabbie's charity in 1874. Between 1875 and 1914, a total of 61 shelters were built at cost of around £200 each. Because the shelters stood on a public highway, the police stipulated that they weren't allowed to be any larger than a horse and cart.
