  • Nadine Pleato, opposite a collapsed building in down-town Port Au Prince . She is living in a garage at Latimer 54, near Paloma. She says: "I have just purchased this bag so I can pack a few things and leave Port Au Prince for the provinces. My house was completely destroyed and I lost all my clothes in the quake. All I have left is four pieces of clothing: a skirt and what I am wearing. I have to live and bathe in the street..I didn't know if my mother was alive for six days until she arrived from the provinces with supplies. I was so relieved but I still haven't seen my boyfriend since the morning of the quake. We were with each other a year. He must be dead but I will never know for sure. It's hard to carry on.  How can we be normal now?"

  • Mr Massoudi,  Director of the  National Museum of Afghanistan pictured next to a statue recently restored after the Taliban smashed it to pieces. Overall the Taliban smashed 2000 museum exhibits and more famously two colossal Buddhas in Bamiyan ‘because they were "false idols" contrary to Islam.  Mr Massouudi with the help of the international community has rebuilt and reopened his museum and is now seeking to recover and restore the many artifacts either looted in the civil war or smashed by the Taliban:<br />
"They took the decision that artefacts such as statues, or anything representing the human figure, was against Sharia Islam . Looking at statues as part of history, is not the same as worshiping them. It was an extremely sad time not just for me, but all museum staff , cultural and educated people in Afghanistan. They destroyed around 2000 artefacts.”

  • Croc smash stall where crockery is smashed up. The Art Car Boot Fair in a car park just off Brick Lane in East London. This is an alternative art event where artists show their works and engage with the public. The Art Car Boot Fair was an idea that grew out of a desire to re-introduce some summer fun and frivolity into a thriving but increasingly commercial London art scene. The aim for the Art Car Boot Fair is to be a day when the artists let their hair down and for all-comers to engage with art in a totally informal way, and to pick up some real art bargains.

  • A fisherman from the Maldives clubs to death a yellow fin tuna on the deck of a dhoni boat in the Indian Ocean. Using a handmade instrument of death, carved from beach flotsam, the man raises his hands to again bring the club down on the dying fish whose skull has already been smashed by repeated blows. Next it will be gutted efficiently with sharp knives and immediately plunged into ice containers to cool the flesh, reducing the risk of self-deteriorating flushed blood which renders it unfit for consumption under EU law (its live internal core temperature is 40 degrees centigrade). When as many fish have been caught before dark using hand and line method, rather than nets, the boat presses on to the processing factory at Himmafushi where they're filleted and boxed for export to Europe and in particular, for UK supermarkets like Sainsbury's.

  • Fishermen from the Maldives haul aboard a yellow fin tuna to the deck of a dhoni boat in the Indian Ocean. The tuna has been swimming across the Indian Ocean non-stop since birth but after being dragged up with hooks, the 50kg fish will be clubbed to death by smashing its skull with repeated blows. Next it will be gutted efficiently with sharp knives and immediately plunged into ice containers to cool the flesh, reducing the risk of self-deteriorating flushed blood which renders it unfit for consumption under EU law (its live internal core temperature is 40 degrees centigrade). When as many fish have been caught before dark using hand and line method, rather than nets, the boat presses on to the processing factory at Himmafushi where they're filleted and boxed for export to Europe and in particular, for UK supermarkets like Sainsbury's.
