  • A flying helmet belonging to a member of the elite 'Red Arrows', Britain's prestigious Royal Air Force aerobatic team, is cradled in the highly-polished open Plexiglass  canopy of a team Hawk jet aircraft. With the arrow pointing downwards we see it from below along with the airplane's red fuselage and the words Royal Air Force stencilled in blue lettering on the side within a white stripe. There are strong angles with clear blue space on the top right. The colours that dominate this image are red, white and blue - the colors of the Union Jack, United Kingdom's flag. This scene is at RAF Akrotiri, Cypus where the Red Arrows put the finishing touches to their display sequences before starting the gruelling air show calendar in the UK and Europe. The squadron represents all that is perfect with aerobatic flying, about teamwork and discipline.

  • A shop window in Camden north London proclaims in red stencilled letters the business is open seven days a week when the store has gone out of business and the words No Hope have been added after the pane of glass has been white-washed. Stickers have been applied and torn off again. It is a graphic picture of irony and delusion, a misguided shop owner who thought his company was successful when it was heading for closure.

  • The main nose wheel of a British Airways airliner is parked on a stand at Heathrow Airport. The identifying names of the Boeing type range such as 777s, 767, 747 and 757s are also stencilled on the apron concrete to allow exact distances for expandable air bridges and other airfield vehicles to connect and service these differing-sized commercial airliners. The pilot has devices inside and outside to gauge the exact spot to break to a standstill though these marks are largely unsighted to them, high up in the cockpit.

  • Looking down from a person's height, we see two Pitbull dogs standing quietly on a south London street pavement. The two animals seem docile but are attached to leads held by an unknown owner. AT the dogs' feet in a stencilled sign that Lambeth, the local council has left at many locations of its streets where dog owners neglect to collect their pets' mess. Their idea was to paint the words "Bag it. Bin it" to help educate this unhygienic practice. Britain's Dangerous Dogs Act bans the breeding and sale or exchange of four kinds of dog - pit bull terriers, Japanese Tosas, the Dogo Argentinos, and the Fila Brasileiros. Under the act, a dog classed as being "dangerously out of control in a public place" can be destroyed. The owner can be fined and imprisoned for up to six months. If a dog injures someone, the owner can be jailed for up to two years.

  • This black and white scene is in a City of London side street where a bicycle parked on a parking pole at a kerbside has somehow fallen over in the gutter. Fittingly, the parking bay is for specifically for a disabled motorist and that word has been stencilled in bold white lettering on the wet road surface after a rain shower. The pavement and tarmac glisten making it slippery but the bike has been left and there is no-one in this scene. Reflected inn the puddle is the modern architecture of the office building, also seen rising from street level.

  • A motorbike rider has pushed aside other scooters and inserted his own bike into a tight parking space in Westminster, central London. Squashing together the scooter belonging to other commuters, this male worker has shoved them along to make way for his own vehicle. The word Motorcycles has been stencilled onto the road to mark the correct bay in the street reserved for only this type of bike meaning space is tight as the number of bikes in the capital's congestion zone has increased. Across Westminster there are approx 6150 spaces for motorcycles on street. Some of these spaces also have security devices for you to secure your motorcycle to.

  • Sprayed with aerosol and stencil on the pavement (sidewalk) in a Manhattan street near New York City's Armory are the words "WTC RIP 9.11.2001"  As if in recognition of the attacks on the World Trade Center that occured four days previously, pedestrians pass-by leaving dark, haunted shadows on the pavement as if suffering the horrors of what many witnessed on September 11th. A young girl is about to walk over the stencil and we see her US stars and stripes bandana wrapped around her head looking like the tv super-hero Wonder Woman. .

  • In the 24hrs that a further 38 died from Coronavirus, bringing the total to 41,736, a further easing of the UK’s Covid pandemic lockdown restrictions took place with many high street shops today being allowed to re-open after three months of forced closure. Prime Minister Boris Johnson, wanting to stimulate the economy, has urged people to "shop with confidence" and long queues formed outside the main brands. But unlike on public transport, face coverings are not compulsory so shop floors and shopping practices have had to be adapted to ensure customers’ social distances, amid fears of a second infection wave. A detail of a pavement stencil telling waiting shoppers outside Sunglass Hut about their QR code scanning app, on Oxford Street, on 15th June 2020, in London, England.

  • Barclays rental Boris Bikes stationed on dock in Soho Square, London...Barclays Cycle Hire is a public bicycle sharing scheme that was launched on 30 July 2010 in London, UK. At launch there were 315 bicycle docking stations and 5,000 bicycles available in central London. The scheme is also informally called the Boris Bike scheme after mayor Boris Johnson, who was in office at the time the scheme opened to the public. The project initially covered about 17 square miles (44 square kilometres) of central London - roughly the same area as the 'Zone 1' Travelcard area (covering the whole of the City of London and parts of eight London boroughs)[5]  and will cost an estimated £140 million (more than £20,000 per available bike) over six years. It is expected to pay for itself over time.[6] Barclays' contribution is £25 million.[The bicycles and the docking stations are built in Canada and are based on Bixi, Montreal's bicycle rental system. Fitzrovia, Wells Street docking station being installed. Over 500,000 bicycle trips were made within the first six weeks of the launch of the scheme.

  • A wide night view looking down on the rubber-stained of runway 27R at Heathrow Airport. During a time-exposure and partially-lit by the headlights and spotlights of an airfield emergency vehicle, we see the giant numbers 27 that landing pilots will see from a mile away as they descend towards the airport's threshold. The numbers relate to the compass bearing that the line of the runway takes: In this case 270 degrees from north and has a parallel southern twin. Across the number two we also see a set of taxiway lights that help the steering pilot navigate across the airfield and line-up on the departing runway. .From writer Alain de Botton's book project "A Week at the Airport: A Heathrow Diary" (2009). .

  • In light monsoonal rain, a lone pedestrian is seen from a high viewpoint, crossing a zebra crossing with a yellow grid box junction to his right in Central Hong Kong on the last day of British rule. The junction is empty and without any traffic but the word 'Look' is stencilled in white letters for the benefit of unwary pedestrians. An umbrella used by the unrecognisable person is a colour match with the painted striped road markings, identical to the British highway traffic code. The transfer of sovereignty of Hong Kong from the United Kingdom to the Peoples Republic of China (PRC), often referred to as "The Handover" occurred at midnight on June 30, 1997, signifying the end of British rule, and the transfer of legal and financial authority back to China. Hong Kong was once known as 'fragrant harbour' (or Heung Keung) because of the smell of transported sandal wood.
