  • A rather rotund man wearing a flat cap, a checked shirt under braces that keep his ample trousers up above his fat tummy, affectionately tickled his pet dog, a Whippet ,who stands still with two paws on his master's large leg. It is a bright day on the beach at Great Yarmouth in Norfolk, England. Bathers are running on the sand in the background and the man and his dog are content to watch the world go by from their promenade bench. Their is a great deal of trust and love these two have for each other - the gentleman having brought his dog on holiday to the seaside with him, rather than leave him with friends or in kennels. The dog is healthy, lithe and obviously has great speed in those muscular legs, vastly different to the man, whose frame is heavy and slow.

  • Two young men dressed in office suits casually stuff their lunches during a hot lunchtime break in the Broadgate Estate in the City of London. Both with legs across knees, the lads in their 20s sit on a bench beneath a tree alongside the statue of a traditional gardener, slightly bent and equipped with hoe and wearing a wastecoat, hobnailed boots and flat cap, an iconic salt-of-the-earth workman. 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-exhausted man whose life has been spent working the honest land.  The English social divide is clearly represented here as the harshness of the manual labourer versus the youth of today, seen in the middle of the modern city.

  • It is 1985 and a farmer walks along a line of long, combustible straw and with a pitchfork and smouldering straw, sets fire to the organic material in an Essex field, southern England. It is late summer and the harvested corn has left behind short stubble which the farmer sets ablaze. This now restricted practice of destroying cereal straw and stubble by flame was stopped by the introduction of The Crop Residues (Burning) Regulations of 1993 which now restricts farmers on burning crop materials, including residues of oilseed rape, field beans and peas, except in very limited circumstances, e.g. for disease control where a plant health order has been served. The burning of straw and stubble also deprives the soil of valuable organic material and releases greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. ..

  • An eccentric middle-aged man rests his legs on his bicycle while -open mouthed and snoring - snatches forty winks on a striped deck chair in London's Hyde Park, England. We look down on the grass which is still green and lush  on this summer's day in the heart of the city. He is wearing a flat cap with trousers (pants)  tucked in his socks for his next bicycle journey. He is a quintissentially English sunbather enjoying a quiet snooze in a public park open space.

  • Bird fanciers admires caged tropical birds in the Grand Place (Grote Markt, in Flemish) bird market, Brussels, Belgium. The archetypal Belgian gentlemen wear flat caps and in the cages are small birds from tropical countries, on sale every Sunday for those wanting avian company in their homes. The Brussels Grand Place hosts a bird market and the selection and prices are generally better than can be found in pet shops though the origins of these creatures are questionable. The Grand Place is Brussels’ main city square, the focal point for colourful events throughout the year. Its Dutch-styled gabled guildhalls date from the 13th century and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
