  • Outdoor showers with a magnificent Himalayan view on the Annapurna Sanctuary trekking route in central Nepal. A tourist waits for a cubical to become free beneath the spectacular backdrop of snow-peaked mountains. Communities here partly-depend on the agriculture of rice-growing but also on the passing tourist trade. Western trekkers from all over the world walk through these tiny communities on their way up the series of climbing trails of the Annapurna Conservation Sanctuary circuit, a sometimes rigorous walk from the low hills of Pokhara to the higher altitudes of Annapurna, the (26,000 feet (8,000 metre) peak. To be greeted by so much choice is the most rewarding experience and the offer of hot showers is about the best reward for so much exertion.

  • Dwarfed by a Giant Sequoia tree (Sequoiadendron giganteum), a female tourist stands with a map of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park in the southern Sierra Nevada range, California. The lady looks diminutive next to this natural plant which are some of the largest organisms in the world, often between 1800 and 2700 years old. The Park is a famous landscape in this wilderness where the fourth largest Giant Sequoia is called The President, a  240.9 foot high tree with a circumference of 93.0 feet and a volume of 45,148 cubic feet. As they continue to grow, they produce about 40 cubic feet of wood each year, approximately equal to the volume of a 50-foot-tall tree one foot in diameter. Source: http://www.nps.gov/seki/index.htm

  • Londoners enjoy autumnal sunshine at Gasholders Park, on 16th October 2018, in London, England. The iconic structures were built in the 1850s as part of Pancras Gasworks. Typical volumes for large gas holders are about 50,000 cubic metres, with 60 metres diameter structures. The gasholders remained in use until the late 20th Century and were finally decommissioned in 2000. Gasholder Park is designed by Bell Phillips Architects.

  • An inspection by the Thames Water Utilities sewer cleaning team looks closely at Victorian-era brick wall linings of the Fleet Rivers Victorian-built storm sewer of Blackfriars, beneath the streets of the City of London, on 19th June 1994, in London, England. Discarded fats from restaurants congeal in sewer networks leading to blocked pipework. Sewer men shovel the deposits and bring them in vats to the surface. In the early 19th century the River Thames was practically an open sewer, with disastrous consequences for public health in London, including numerous cholera epidemics with the The Great Stink of 1858 a turning point. Intercepting sewers constructed between 1859 and 1865 were fed by 450 miles 720 km of main sewers that in turn conveyed the contents of some 13,000 miles 21,000 km of smaller local sewers using 318m bricks, 880,000 cubic yards of concrete and mortar and excavation of over 3.5m tonnes of earth.

  • This photo is of Turquoise Mountain labourers emptying the ‘karachi’ (wheelbarrows) of rubbish ready for collection by the Municipality. Turquoise Mountain has removed over 15,000 cubic metres of rubbish from the area since 2006, lowering the street level by two metres in some places and significantly reducing incidents of illness and disease.The residents of Murad khane  are enjoying improved conditions thanks to  the charity. Turquoise Mountain  is a charity set up by Rory Stewart. He was asked personally by Prince Charles to take on the task of rebuilding the ancient heart of Kabul. His charity using local labour and the goodwill of the community is substantially into the task and has also set up a school training Afghans in traditional crafts. The area had literally been turned into a rubbish dump, now though using ancient skills the buildings are being restored to their former glory, Stewart is hopeful that he can contribute significantly to the local economy.

  • Empty rigid-design gas holders architecture at the Oval, South London. The steel frames are seen against an afternoon sky at Oval, in south London - their strengthening architecture showing how the gasometer design has been an effective method storing gas for a hundred years. The Oval Gasholders at The Oval cricket ground, in spite of no longer being used, are now a grade 2 listed structure. Typical volumes for large gasholders are about 50,000 cubic metres, with 60 metre diameter structures. Gasholders tend to be used nowadays for balancing purposes (making sure gas pipes can be operated within a safe range of pressures) rather than for actually storing gas for later use.
