  • Beneath the sunlit pillars of Trinity Square in the City of London, a businessman strides up the steps with a bag over his shoulder, his long 90s raincoat reaching down to his knees. He may have been delayed, late due to his commuting journey from the suburbs but his arrival at work or meeting seems to a casual deadline.

  • An executive peers down on his employees on a giant screen, addressing his loyal audience of his staff who have congregated at an Academy Day held for 3,000 of company London employees at Excel in London's Docklands, England. The hall is packed and his disciples listen and watch intently and obediently to watch their Leader speak like a Big Brother character, who ernestly and sincerely talks down to them despite being dressed casually for such a large event. Each employee will attend this brainstorming fair where later, motivational pep-talks from executives, outside speakers and gurus will talk to large groups of personnel so their presence on this day away from the office is vital for the year's business ahead.

  • With his body in shade and only his head in the sun, a Portuguese man stands in the street of central Lisbon to read the headlines of national and provincial newspapers which are pinned by their top right corners for passers-by to glance at or buy. Lit by early morning sun, the daily or weekly periodicals are set in a neat row for the benefit of this man and other citizens of the Portuguese capital. Ornate square tile mosaics are set in the pavement (sidewalk) in a design style that Lisbon is well-known for. In an age of mass-communications, reading one's media on paper in such a manner already seems old fashioned.

  • 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.
