  • Children play on a UN armoured vehicle exhibited during 1995 VE Day 50th anniversary celebrations in London. Climbing on the top of the tank, the kids risk injury on the surface, with many sharp corners and places to fall from.

  • Ravers in Block 9, "Hovering in the shadows of an ancient industrial power facility, a towering concrete and glass structure lies dormant and overgrown. This is Genosys. Short for Generated Oxygen System, this epic, brutalist ‘tree’ was built to save the once poisoned planet.

An audiovisual hybrid that blurs the boundaries between art and music, Genosys celebrates the pre-digital dance floor in spectacular style. Originally a Thames Arts commission, the 50ft structure was designed by Block9 for ‘The Tree of Light’, a series of large-scale outdoor theatre performances and part of the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad.Glastonbury Festival is the largest greenfield festival in the world, and is now attended by around 175,000 people. It's a five-day music festival that takes place near Pilton, Somerset, England. In addition to contemporary music, the festival hosts dance, comedy, theatre, circus, cabaret, and other arts. It is organised by Michael Eavis on his own land, Worthy Farm in Pilton. Leading pop and rock artists have headlined, alongside thousands of others appearing on smaller stages and performance areas.

  • Members of Chinese exile community keep vigil and await more news outside their embassy a day after the Tiananmen Sq massacre. A mock coffin draped in the Chinese flag sit on the London pavement, a presence to officials in the embassy opposite.

  • As stormy waves crash over its super-structure and funnel, the Liberian-registered MV Braer oil tanker spills 84,700 tonnes of crude oil into the North Sea. It sits below its water-line with crude oil leaking from its ruptured tanks after running ground in hurricane force winds, beeching itself on these rocks in Quendale Bay, west of Sunburgh Head, the Shetland Islands, Scotland. In fast-fading light, this ecological disaster occured in a beautiful region of Great Britain affecting much native wildlife although the Gulfaks oil the Braer was carrying is lighter therefore more biodegradable and able to disperse better than other North Sea crude.

  • During the turnround of the British Airways jet aircraft, a refueller drags the heavy fuel nozzle from his bowser truck on the apron at Heathrow Airport's Terminal 5. He is about to plug the connections into the airfield's underground reservoirs from where some 109 tons of Jet A1 aviation fuel flowing at a rate of 3,000 litres a minute will be uplifted into the wing tanks of a Boeing 747-300, a typical quantity of extra fuel for this aeroplane bound for Los Angeles. From writer Alain de Botton's book project "A Week at the Airport: A Heathrow Diary" (2009).

  • Hours before a European Space Agency Ariane 5 rocket launch, a computer monitor displays cryogenic data at the CDL3 launch centre at ESA's Space Centre at Kourou, French Guiana. It shows the status of liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen propellant systems within a Vulcain engine. Stored in the launcher tanks and fed to the engine, they react chemically and expand in the engine combustion chamber then forced through the nozzle to provide the thrust that propels the vehicle into orbit. Cryogenic engines utilise propellants that are liquid under cryogenic conditions, at a temperature much lower than normal ambient conditions (-251°C for hydrogen and -184°C for oxygen). The advantage of cryogenic propellants is that they provide the highest thrust performance.

  • Animals kept in appalling conditions at this snake farm on Khlong Bangkok Yai canal. Basing the ethos of the farm on snake conservation did not seem appropriate given the conditions that the snakes and other much larger anomals were kept. In unclean water, cages and tanks, with little vegatation and looking rarely cleaned, the animals had a palour of illness, exhaustion and in cases, madness. Snakes during the snake show were repeatedly provoked into attack by the snake handlers slapping, pinching and throwing the snakes.

  • PlayPump near Pretoria, South Africa. The PlayPump Water System uses the energy of children at play to operate a water pump. It is manufactured by the South African company Roundabout Outdoor. It operates in a similar way to a windmill-driven water pump. The PlayPump water system is a like a playground merry-go-round attached to a water pump. The spinning motion pumps underground water into a 2,500-liter tank raised seven meters above ground. The water in the tank is easily dispensed by a tap valve. According to the manufacturer the pump can raise up to 1400 liters of water per hour from a depth of 40 meters. Excess water is diverted below ground again. The storage tank has a four-sided advertising panel. Two sides are used to advertise products, thereby providing money for maintenance of the pump, and the other two sides are devoted to public health messages. There are more than 1000 PlayPump systems in five countries of Sub-Saharan Africa, providing clean drinking water to more than 1 million people in need.
