  • First World War memorial soldier beneath the Bank of England (L) and the columns of Royal Exchange. The tall and solid Corinthian pillars of the 3rd Royal Exchange built in 1842 by Sir William Tite. Looking upwards towards a memorial that commemorates the dead from the First World War of 1914-18 between the converging pillars of the Cornhill Exchange building and beyond, to the famous Bank of England in the City Of London, the financial district, otherwise known as the Square Mile. The Bank of England (formally the Governor and Company of the Bank of England) is the central bank of the United Kingdom and the model on which most modern central banks have been based. It is wholly owned by the Treasury Solicitor on behalf of the Government, with independence in setting monetary policy.

  • We are looking upwards towards three converging pillars of the Cornhill Exchange building and beyond, to the famous Bank of England in the City Of London, the financial district, otherwise known as the Square Mile. Traffic leaves its light trails between the lens-distorted columns as it passes eastwards towards Bank Triangle, a busy intersection. It is early evening as the ambient light fades while artificial illumination becomes the dominant light-source.  With such a wide-angle perspective the bank and its architecture looks powerful and influencial in the UK's economy. The dark pillars contrasting with the colourful (colorful) light emitted from this established Bank makes for a scene of stability and strength.

  • Looking upwards towards the back of a number 8 red London bus which passes the pillars of the famous Bank of England building at Cornhill in the City Of London, the financial district, otherwise known as the Square Mile. We see the Bank rising as an imposing classical structure. Its columns are converging because of wide-angle lens-distortion, giving us the image of strength, stability and influence in UK economics. 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. Its distinctive rounded rear bodywork is easily recognisable as that classic British icon.

  • A middle-aged man dressed in a smart dark suit is about to descend underground to Bank tube (subway) station beneath the converging columns of the famous Bank of England and Cornhill Exchange at Bank Triangle in the City Of London, the financial district, otherwise known as the Square Mile. The gentleman is on his way home in the afternoon, his commuting exodus to be shared by its daily working population of 311,000. This perspective of suggests a bank and its architecture looking powerful and influential in the UK's economy. The pillars give a sense of establishment, a scene of classic stability and strength.

  • The Monday morning following the attacks on the World Trade Center on Septmber 11th we see a dust-filled haze on Wall Street to where city financiers returned to their office desks to find their city skyline missing the Twin Towers and Manhattan in a state of perpetual shock and still under a mist of smoke from the debris at Ground Zero. To celebrate the near-return to financial normality, New Yorkers' spirit was proved intact by the hanging of US flags from buildings. An American flag hangs and a banner for 48 Wall Street, known as the Bank of New York Building (built in 1928 on land used by the bank since 1797), on the corner of Wall Street and William Street in New York City's Financial District...

A pedestrian light shows both green for walk and red for don't walk while a street light that has just been illuminated starts to glow on the right. Blue light of the late day and an overcast sky makes the scene gloomy and slightly threatening. Canary Wharf is the product of the 1980s financial boom when during the office of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, huge building projects such as the Docklands consortium saw vast changes in London's landscape.

  • Canary Wharf tower is seen from below at street level in London Docklands, England. The sun glints off one corner of the highly-reflective surface of the building underexposing the mottled sky to make the scene gloomy and slightly threatening. It also looks aspirational for any corpoiration to have its headquarters in this iconic skyscraper tower. It thrusts itself in from the bottom left corner into the centre of the picture with imposing dominance as if pointing towards Heaven like a church spire. Canary Wharf is the product of the 1980s financial boom when during the office of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, huge building projects such as the Docklands consortium saw vast changes in London's landscape.

  • A corner of One Canada Square is seen soon after its completion in the early-1990s. A street light has just been turned on in the early evening and the offices inside the tower also start to brighten the corporate spaces.

  • A businessman stands in mid-afternoon sunshine during a break beneath the Bank of England in Bank triangle in the City of London. The Bank of England (formally the Governor and Company of the Bank of England) is the central bank of the United Kingdom and the model on which most modern central banks have been based. Established in 1694 acted as the English Government's banker, and to this day it still acts as the banker for HM Government. The Bank was privately owned and operated from its foundation in 1694. It was subordinated to the Treasury after 1931 in making policy and was nationalised in 1946. In 1997 it became an independent public organisation, wholly owned by the Treasury Solicitor on behalf of the Government, with independence in setting monetary policy.

  • Near the junction of the 400 to Buckhead, the 401 highway divides and splits during afternoon rush-hour traffic which slows and builds up so that vehicles and cars back-up as they head home and out of Downtown Atlanta, Georgia. The inner median is coned off during some construction work which slows the traffic even more. Crossing the 5-lane road comes a train of Atlanta's own mass-transit system, the MARTA network and it approaches the overpass with care. We see the infrastructure of a modern metropolis at the busiest time of day when the exodus to get home puts the roads and feeder lanes under the most pressure. Fortunately, the weather is fine with good visibility making drivers' journeys a little shorter and more tolerable but it shows too America's habit and dependency on car culture.

  • An aerial landscape view of a railway network whose tracks and rails converge on a station in central London. Three trains filled with commuters all make their way into this unseen railway hub. The route curls away into the distance, slicing its way through the capital. London Rail is a directorate of Transport for London (TFL), involved in the relationship with the National Rail network within London, UK. It manages non-tube rail systems in London. Railways started to change the landscape of London itself, followed by its suburbs in the mid to late 19th century when streets and neighbourhoods were cut in half by the new infrastructure.

  • An elderly Hungarian woman pauses to smile at the viewer during a busy morning in Budapest's Central Market Hall (Hungarian: Nagycsarnok), on F?vám Tér in the 9th district. The market is the largest indoor market in the Hungarian capital and is where this lady and many other market traders converge on every weekday morning to sell their own produce. This woman has a lined face suggesting she has had a hard life under a Communist regime. She still wears a traditional Hungarian covered head favoured by older people in rural communities but is now dying out as headwear for a younger generation.
