  • On a wooden boardwalk that stretches across a sandy beach landscape, a young girl runs at full speed away from her mother and younger brother who walk along this walkway on the beach at Calais, France. It is low-tide, hazy winter sunshine makes soft shadows on the sand but there are few people out in the cold beyond except for a family in the surf approximately 200 yards away in the distance. Half-way back to the shore is a lone lifebelt attached to its pole in case of emergency. This near-deserted beach is an idyllic and tranquil place, allowing children to let off steam. Ffrom a personal documentary project entitled "Next of Kin" about the photographer's two children's early years spent in parallel universes. Model released.

  • A landscape of Bleriot Plage near Calais on the northern French coast, where the first-ever international flight between France and the southern English coast took place by the French aviator Louis Bleriot on 25th July 1909. He flew from the beach at Sangatte, to the cliffs at Dover to claim the prize offered by the Daily Mail. Nowadays, French families use the sand and dunes as a holiday beach destination using inflatable dinghies to paddle in the surf. The Bleriot crossing took 37 minutes in his aeroplane, Blériot XI, built in collaboration with Raymond Saulnier. It was powered by a 3 cylinder 25 horsepower (19 kW) engine.

  • An eccentric Brit sports fan marches towards the Velodrome in the Olympic Park during the London 2012 Olympics. In the background is the main stadium and giant screen showing live coverage of selected Olympic events for crowds lining grass banks. Dressed in a union jack suit and carrying the IOC logo on a flag, he strides along a boadwalk. This land was transformed to become a 2.5 Sq Km sporting complex, once industrial businesses and now the venue of eight venues including the main arena, Aquatics Centre and Velodrome plus the athletes' Olympic Village. After the Olympics, the park is to be known as Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

  • Examples of bird wildlife to be found after the extensive conservation project at Barton Broad in the Norfolk Broads. The information board shows us the species and kinds of birdlife thriving in this wetland, a region of east Anglia known for its important natural habitats after decades of neglect. Birds such as Coot, Mallard, Moorhen, Tern and Grebe are all surviving thanks to investment and a commitment to protect native species. Barton Broad is the largest Broad in the Ant Valley. It is a man-made landscape impacted by natural processes - the open water is a result of flooded peat diggings. The fen habitat around Barton Broad contributes to the largest fenland expanse in the UK and contains rare vegetation.
