  • A team of employees of Cyprea Marine Foods fillet freshly-caught yellow fin tuna fish at the company's refrigerated processing factory on Himmafushi island, Maldives. The 50kg carcasses have been swimming across the Indian Ocean non-stop since birth, just line-caught by freelance boat crews who share profits for only high-quality fish that passes stringent health tests. The tuna has been in ice since being landed to keep a low-temperature body core so the workers cut out the prime flesh as quickly as possible before boxing the resulting chunks of steak for export by air to Europe and in particular for customers such as UK's Sainsbury's supermarket. The Sri Lankan workers are ex-fishermen and widowers, having lost their families during the Tsunami. Using extremely sharp knives, they skillfully remove valuable meat and throw away the rest.

  • Exactly 110 years after it opened, and 100 days after it was closed, campaigners against the closure of Carnegie Library in Herne Hill, south London dressed in Edwardian clothing for speeches and a street party on 9th July, London. Shut by Lambeth council and occupied by protesters for 10 days in April, the library which was bequeathed by American philanthropist, Andrew Carnegie has been locked ever since because, say Lambeth austerity cuts are necessary even though 24hr security make it more expensive to keep closed than open for the local community. A gym that locals say they don't want or need is planned to replace the working library and while some of the 20,000 books on shelves will remain, no librarians will be present to administer it.
