  • As bright sunlight fills a bare studio room, and a wooden cross is propped up in the corner, Paula Douthett (left) and three other members of the evangelical Sacred Dance Ministry (Group) perform a moment from the biblical nativity scene in her house at Milbourne St Andrew, Dorset, England. Together they are acting as part of the International Christian Dance Fellowship whose performers include performers, choreographers and teachers of all styles of dance technique, as well as those who dance in worship, intercession, healing, evangelism and prophetic interpretation. In the middle, a lady pretends to be holding the baby Jesus while the others play the roles of angels as they express wonder and admiration for this miraculous moment.

  • The unrecognisable driver of a number 38 red London bus which is passing between sunlight and shadow, gives a thumbs up signal to another road-user in the streets of Victoria. On the side of the vehicle's bodywork are the destinations the 38 route passes:  Hackney, Dalston Junction, Angel, Piccadilly Circus and Victoria Station. The bus is a traditional design called a Routemaster which has been in service on the capital's roads since 1954 and is nowadays only seen on heritage routes. From any angle, the bus is easily recognisable as that classic British transport icon.

  • A memorial has been placed where a young man called ?Aiden? died in Prebend Street, London, England. If we just ignored this place where someone's life ended, the victim would just be a statistic but flowers are left to die too with touching poems written by family and loved-ones: ?Champion among men, now a champion of angels/A star in the Heavens has been named in memory of Aiden.? From a project about makeshift shrines: Britons have long installed memorials in the landscape: Statues and monuments to war heroes, Princesses and the socially privileged. But nowadays we lay wreaths to the ordinary who die suddenly - killed as pedestrians, as drivers or by alcohol, all celebrated on our roadsides and in cities with simple, haunting roadside remembrances.

  • A memorial has been placed where ?Sarah? died near the A29 in Pulborough, Sussex, England, UK. Were we to ignore this place where someone's life ended, the victim would just be a statistic but flowers are left to there too with touching poems and dedications written by family and loved-ones. One reads: ?A little Angel lent, not given/to be born on earth/and grow in Heaven/We have lost a Princess, but gained an Angel/To take you so soon is tragic we know/but when Jesus calls, you just have to go." From a project about makeshift shrines: ?Britons have long installed memorials in the landscape: Statues and monuments to war heroes, Princesses and the socially privileged.

  • Gathered beneath the outer walls of the 15th century Church of St John the Baptist, a flock of Anglican pilgrims ready for a procession through the ancient Christian and pagan town of Glastonbury. Banners from their parish churches show illustrations for their Saints such as St Andrew and St Mark while an angel looks down on another. A young choir boy looks down at his feet, a middle-aged Church of England vicar holds his banner and a much younger member of a congregation stands with a polished silver cross. Glastonbury is notable for myths and legends about Joseph of Arimathea, the Holy Grail and King Arthur and in Arthurian literature Glastonbury is identified with the legendary island of Avalon. Medieval monks at the abbey even claimed to have found the graves of Arthur and Guinevere and the place is also said to be the centre of several ley lines.

  • A four year-old girl plays some sort of religious role-play game - perhaps an angel or the Virgin Mary - but what do see is her age of innocence as she wears an NHS blanket like a shawl over her head and draped over her arms like a Christian icon. Next to her is her 18 month-old baby brother who has learned to drink his warm milk from a plastic bottle, recently coming to like both breast and formula milk. Together they look at something that is interesting out of frame. The viewer looks up at the two siblings from a low angle to see them tall against the corniced ceiling of their South London home. From a personal documentary project entitled "Next of Kin" about the photographer's two children's early years spent in parallel universes. Model released.
