  • A detail of home-made posters by residents from Kent over the planned high-speed (TGV-style) rail link from London to the south-east coast, on 5th August 1989, in London, England. Locals from the Darenth Valley in rural Kent, against the forthcoming Channel Tunnel rail link organised their own campaign to reverse decisions by British Rail to cut a new rail link through their community. British Rail announced that 150mph TGV trains would travel through their rural Kent countryside, forcing residents to sell their homes within a 240 metre corridor to the rail line, at great loss while splitting up the community.

  • Separated by four floors, two employees of the auditing company Ernst & Young, make their way along walkways in the main atrium of E & Y's European headquarter offices at More London, London England. Striding confidently between offices, the two people are unaware of each other's presence but make their way from right to left of this tall, upright scene of modernity. The senior person on top may have an advantage from better opportunities, the low-ranking worker below may be needing to rise up the ranks. Morning sunlight floods through the green tinted glass that overlooks Tower Bridge on the River Thames. The term atrium comes from Latin: a large and light central hall or reception of a house where guests were greeted. The depth and height of all levels from near the top to almost the bottom give a sense of vertigo, a dizzying perspective. .

  • 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..

  • Reaching out to a tower of scaffolding, high above the skyline of North London, a member of a company of abseiling construction scaffold workers make use of circus skills. Suspended with ropes, carabinas and a seat harness normally used by mountaineers, this man is wearing a safety helmet and blue overalls and his dirty gloved hand is about to make contact with yellow iron work as his colleague looks skyward, already tethered to the reinforced structure. A 60s tower block is immediately behind and suburban houses and streets are below. We see a man about to make contact with a place of safety, reaching out to his destination while spread across London's skies. Lit by flash, this picture is confusing because the viewer sees a false sense of size and scale between the iron work and the flats behind.
