  • A partner struggles to lift a lady on a shingle beach up over a coastal groyne in Porlock, Somerset, UK.

  • From an aerial perspective, we look down on the green algae and a lone rower who is sculling upstream of the River Lea (Also Lee) in east London, England. The words No Fishing have been painted by hand on a old Victorian lock that once served as a navigable route for barges to negotiate this inner-city waterway. With its source in the Chiltern Hills and ending in the River Thames, this stretch of river has seen development from Saxon times through to the building of the 2012 Olympic site at Stratford. Meticulously placing his oars in the water, he parts the organic growth with the slim boat's hull and looks over his shoulder to check his distance and angle as he nears the lock's concrete spans.

  • Three crosses on the nave roof of St. Benedict church, Horning on the Nofolk Broads. With the nearest side in shadow, we see the flint stones set into the building's walls.

This area of Britain is known as East Anglia, once the stronghold of Saxon tribes then later, of Norse Vikings before Christianity dominated the religious landscape. Christian sites of worship were built on pagan shrines to encourage the following of the new God.

Cuthbert (c. 634 - 687) is a saint of the early Northumbrian church in the Celtic tradition. He was a monk, bishop and hermit, associated with the monasteries of Melrose and Lindisfarne in what might loosely be termed the Kingdom of Northumbria in the North East of England and the South East of Scotland. After his death he became one of the most important medieval saints of Northern England, with a cult centred on his tomb at Durham Cathedral. Cuthbert is regarded as the patron saint of Northern England. The Holy Island of Lindisfarne, also known simply as Holy Island, is an island off the northeast coast of England. Holy Island has a recorded history from the 6th century AD; it was an important centre of Celtic and Anglo-saxon Christianity. After the Viking invasions and the Norman conquest of England, a priory was reestablished.
