  • Young woman withdraws cash from her local London branch of the Abbey National Building Society in 1989. With her finger almost touching the keypad, the lady and her companion are withdrawing cash from this hole in the wall after investing their funds in this branch of Britain's building society. Abbey National plc was a UK-based bank and former building society, which latterly traded under the Abbey brand name. It became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Spanish Santander Group in 2004, and was combined with the savings business of the former Bradford & Bingley in January 2010 to form Santander UK plc. Before the takeover, it was a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index.

  • A Securicor guard delivers a cash box to a City of London bank. Walking quickly to avoid delays in the street, the employee of this security company carries the secure box wearing protective helmet in case of an armed robbery - his most vulnerable body area being the head and neck. The box is padlocked and contains explosive dyes and loud alarms if forcefull opened. Securicor was originally founded by Edward Shortt, a former Liberal Cabinet Minister, in 1935 as Nightwatch Services: its guards rode bicycles and wore old police uniforms. However in 1939 it was taken over by Lord Willingdon and Henry Tiarks who developed it into a leading security business. It changed its name to Security Corps in 1951 then shortened to Securicor in 1953.

  • An elderly homeless man walks slowly past a Barclays Bank cash dispenser at which business people are either queueing or typing in their PIN numbers from cash accounts, or simply passing-by. One middle-aged gent stands eyeing the poor man suspiciously while other men of wealth, prospects and prosperity are tall and stand erect in smart suits and polished shoes, the homeless man is hunched and dishevelled, carrying a supermarket bag - perhaps containing all of his worldly goods. It is a tragic scene of extremes between the haves and the have-nots; the rich and poor; between people with hope and those in despair. This is the City of London, near Fenchurch Street Station where the UK's insurance companies are based and it is impossible to know if any of these men in smart clothes are the same age as the poor man.

  • A businessman stands over a Victorian-style shoe-shiner in a corner of Leadenhall Market in the City of London. His 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 downwards from the perspective of the wealthier man, a superior view that the client feels when paying for such a service. Wearing a red uniform, 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.

  • Lit by early sun that filters through mountain peaks to this remote village near Ulleri, in the Himalayan foothills, Nepal, we see the veranda of a tea shop that serves weary travellers trekking the Annapurna Circuit and traditional doko basket. Villages such as these partly-depend on the agriculture of rice-growing and also on the passing tourist trade. Western trekkers walk through these tiny communities on their way up the series of climbing trails of the Annapurna Conservation Sanctuary, a sometimes gruelling walk from the low hills of Pokhara to the higher altitudes of Annapurna, the (26,000 feet (8,000 metre) peak - and beyond. Tea houses are dotted along the trail offering lodging, refreshments and basic, but delicious food to the weary traveller and the landscapes are often shared with local livestock.

  • A spread of old Polish Zloty bank notes are spread out in the hands of a private market trader in Central Warsaw. His arms appear from the bottom left of frame and we can see a dozen or so notes of 2000 and 5000 and other denominations in an arc, held together with both thumbs. In the back ground and out of focus is the hustle and bustle of a summer's day at this market at a football stadium where Polish citizens come to sell and buy their possessions in the hope of making a little money to support meagre incomes. Women are inspecting clothing and materials on a stall in the open-air, under a bright sun. On the front-facing note is the medieval ruler Mieszko I though these notes were phased out in 1995 when hyperinflation forced, the currency to undergo redenomination.

during the annual Royal Ascot horseracing festival in Berkshire, England. Royal Ascot is one of Europe's most famous race meetings, and dates back to 1711. Queen Elizabeth and various members of the British Royal Family attend. Held every June, it's one of the main dates on the English sporting calendar and summer social season. Over 300,000 people make the annual visit to Berkshire during Royal Ascot week, making this Europe's best-attended race meeting with over £3m prize money to be won.

  • A Big Issue seller sits near a Christian Dior fashion House sponsored taxi in London's Bond Street during Vogue's Fashion's Night Out festival in the streets of the West End. But it is still early and passers-by pay more attention to the vehicle than the poor newspaper seller, traditionally a homeless person who earns cash from selling this charity magazine to members of the public. She sits strategically outside the Louis Vuitton shop where a different class of English society spend their wealth on couture and luxury items such as accessories and jewellery.

  • A street beggar has been noticed by a young Italian boy who points out the poor kneeling body to his parent. A stick lies on the ground with a paper cup to collect any spare change offered and a cash customer stands entering his pin number into the automated bank dispenser, his back to the underclass of society. This has become normal for what has become the modern face of Italian society in this once-grand medieval city. The city lies on the River Arno and is known for its history and its importance in the Middle Ages and in the Renaissance, especially for its art and architecture. A centre of medieval European trade and finance and one of the wealthiest cities of the time, Florence has been called the Athens of the Middle Ages.
