  • In a London street, an apprentice in the bakery or milk industry endures a shower of fresh milk being poured over his head after a dusting of flour. This traditional ritual is usually performed on the unfortunate young man when he has successfully passed his apprenticeship term in the company - his mates participating in making his day as miserable as possible. But he takes it with good humour as it means he is now initiated into the industry.

  • A group of American interior design students sketch buildings adjacent while sitting on steps of public building in Florence's Piazza Di Annunziata. The small class is made up mostly of young women and there is a young man who is apparently teaching one woman how to capture the finer points of the architecture opposite. They all have sketchpads on their laps and are either looking into the distance, memorising the landscapes - or using pencils to reproduce these features on to paper. Florence and other Italian cities are full of young Americans studying music and painting, art and design, completing and complimenting US-based courses often as foreign exchange students or as residential terms.

  • Female vet, Diana Stapleton is ecstatically happy after successfully delivering twin calves to Fresian cow at Manor House Farm, Barnoldswick near Settle, North Yorkshire, England. With the two youngsters spread on the soft straw of the barn, and their mother facing the corner of the outhouse with the resulting afterbirth still attached, Diana makes her sense of achievement clear to the farmer who must also be relived about the positive outcome. The survival of twin cattle births depends on thorough training and an instinct for animal husbandry and medical requirements. Diana Stapleton belonged to the Dalehead Veterinary Group based in nearby Settle for 15 years, covering a 20-mile area of 500 remote farms though she specialised in small animals and farmwork before dying suddenly at the age of 39.

  • Four estate agent's property boards advertise their names and numbers in a London housing estate, each representing vendors selling their houses and flats for a set commission in the housing market. Above the signs is the pink blossom from a cherry tree whose branches hang over the temporary information boards. The term originally referred to a person responsible for managing a landed estate, while those engaged in the buying and selling of homes were "House Agents", and those selling land were "Land Agents". However, in the 20th century, "Estate Agent" started to be used as a generic term, perhaps because it was thought to sound more impressive. Estate agent is roughly synonymous in the United States with the term real estate broker.

Many countries today use the French term “allée” – generally translated as “avenue” in English – to designate a road lined with trees which have been deliberately planted at regular intervals on either side of the roadway, be it a pathway in a park, an urban thoroughfare or a country road. These routes from the 17th century lead to the birth of the “boulevard” – a term which had its origins in military engineering but now took on a new meaning, designating a tree-lined promenade around the outskirts of a town or city.

  • Parade of plane trees leading to the village of Tournissan in the south of France.<br />
Many countries today use the French term “allée” – generally translated as “avenue” in English – to designate a road lined with trees which have been deliberately planted at regular intervals on either side of the roadway, be it a pathway in a park, an urban thoroughfare or a country road. These routes from the 17th century lead to the birth of the “boulevard” – a term which had its origins in military engineering but now took on a new meaning, designating a tree-lined promenade around the outskirts of a town or city.
