  • A woman in her late 20s crouches down to paint the bare wood of a window frame in a Victorian terraced home. Wearing blue work overalls and brandishing a narrow width paint brush with white wood primer on its hairs, the lady works away in a rear room of this house that overlooks similar aged properties in south London, England. The sash-style window is up and open so that fresh air helps dry this coat of paint. Furniture has been cleared from the room - a back of the house upstairs bathroom.

  • Seen from a high viewpoint, a young girl rides on her father's shoulders in the middle of the Longleat Hedge Maze. She can barely see over the walls of foliage, so tall is the labyrinth of twisty pathways, and she holds out her hands to brush against the green foliage. Made up of more than 16,000 English Yews, Longleat's spectacular hedge maze - the world's largest - was first laid out in 1975 by the designer Greg Bright. The Maze covers an area of around 1.48 acres (0.6 hectares) with a total pathway length of 1.69 miles (2.72 kilometres). Unlike most other conventional mazes it's actually three-dimensional.

  • A businesswoman stands seductively over a Victorian-style shoe-shiner in a corner of Leadenhall Market in the City of London. Her black shoe is resting on a small brass plinth for the leather to be buffed up with the help of Kiwi polish and the efficient speed of a good brushing technique with the final stage being a dusting to bring the best reflective shine. Their relationship is that of paying-customer and servant and we look see a sexually-dominant situation where the wealthy-looking lady is standing over the man with her strong leg showing in a provocative manner. Wearing a red uniform and ID, the shoe-shiner is on bended-knees, his weight resting on a soft, red cushion, protection from the cold, hard pavement while looking down, concentrating on the job in hand.

  • With his brush at the ready, a donkey ride owner awaits new business during the quiet Siesta afternoon period in Seville's Plaza de Espana. This semicircular enclosure was built by Aníbal González, the great architect of Sevillian regionalism, for the Ibero-American exposition held in 1929. Today the Plaza de España mainly consists of Government buildings. The Seville Town Hall, with sensitive adaptive redesign, is located within it. The Plaza's tiled 'Alcoves of the Provinces' are backdrops for visitors portrait photographs, taken in their own home province's alcove.

  • An artist is incongruously enclosed in roadworks barriers at the busy junction of Piccadilly Circus in London's West End. Painting with an easel and applying careful brush strokes amid the noise and chaos of this busy traffic junction in the capital. A young man walks past barely noticing the artist as he strides through the heart of London's west end. But on the youth's t-shirt is a modern interpretation (wearing glasses and apparently spitting liquid into a cup) of Hans Memling's "Portrait of a Man with a Coin of the Emperor Nero (Bernardo Bembo)" German-born artist Jan van Mimnelinghe (Hans Memling, c. 1435-94) was well known all over Europe. During his lifetime, he painted commissions not only for the Burgundian Dukes, but also for patrons in Germany, Austria, Venice, Florence and London.

  • Up on the top deck, we see a lone sailor brushing off the grubby surfaces of parked F/A-18C Hornets and S-3 Vikings on the US Navy aircraft carrier USS Harry S Truman during its deployment patrol of the no-fly zone at an unknown location in the Persian Gulf. Stacked together in tight formation to fit them all together during a daytime break in operations, the man bends into his task during the hottest time of day. The Truman is the largest and newest of the US Navy's fleet of new generation carriers, a 97,000 ton floating city with a crew of 5,137, 650 are women.

  • Having just unearthed more bodies from layers of volcanic ash and pumice, an archaeologist's assistant pauses for a cigarette, kneeling beside a victim of the AD79 eruption of Mount Versuvius over the ancient Roman town of Pompeii. Buried beneath huge amounts of toxic material this person was suffocated and crushed from falling debris. Preserved in a shell of volcanic material it is to be removed from this site on top of a villa roof where, it is calculated, this citizen was one of the last to die, having climbed 4 metres above ground level to await its fate. The Italian man ears a red t-shirt and holds a pick that has scraped and brushed away the soil to reveal the human form which also shows another body beneath. Others litter the rooftop too proving that many survivors of the first eruption perished after the second many hours later.

  • Ninety year-old Mrs Irene Spurling sits with fingers crossed looking to camera with a mild look of mild bemusement. She is actually familiar with celebrity, having been the secretary to the Australian operatic singer Dame Nellie Melba between 1919-1921. She travelled with the diva in the latter years of her singing career, and in 1993 lived in a nursing home in Winchester, Hampshire England. Irene has clear blue eyes, brushed silver hair and seemingly gnarled, arthritic hands and still wears her wedding ring. Despite her years, she is still active and interested in her surroundings.

  • As a young office worker sleeps incongruously on a marble pavement, a street sweeper nearby brushes away litter with a small dustpan. The manual labourer wears blue overalls, yellow gloves and keys in his back pocket while the man in a wastecoat and smart trousers and polished slip-on shoes appears to be fast asleep, his fingers across his chest. This scene suggests the social divisions of the working man: Of the young, educated post-war generation whose opportunities have afforded them a faster lifestyle, far removed from that of the physically-demanding job of a man whose life has been spent cleaning and sweeping. English social differences is clearly represented here as the harshness of the manual labourer versus a lazy youth of today, seen in the middle of the modern city.

  • An elderly lady resident of a tower block, watches the outside world from her high-rise window, overlooking the Middlesex Estate in the City of London. A window box with geraniums is by the glass and she peeers down to a bleak urban estate, empty of human contact or friendly neighbours. She lives alone in this grim place but she is looking after herself showing brushed hair , a lace top and lipstick. The world outside is a depressingly empty landscape of concrete walkways and garage doors, an inner-city environment devoid of human interaction or friendliness..

  • While on ceremonial duties at the Queen's Buckingham Palace, members of the Welsh Guards prepare the finer details of uniform presentation at the Wellington barracks, opposite the Palace in central London, England. Buffing up their bearskin hats and brushing away any specks of dust from shoulders, they each help the other appear as near-perfect as they can before parading in front of thousands during the Changing of the Guard or at other times, during tropping of the Colour on the Queen's birthday occasion. Formed in 1915 by order of King George V,  have fought in every war since but are housed at the Wellington Barracks purely for ceremonial reasons, also serving on active duty in the world's trouble spots, where their professionalism is demanded by their British Ministry of Defence masters.
