  • Sarah Leggitt feeds her livestock on her land and near the estate cottage, a former Smithy with livestock at Lochbuie, Isle of Mull, Scotland. She and her husband moved from southern England 6 years ago to work for the Lochbuie Estate and the old Smithy is provided to them as living accommodation. Lochbuie is a settlement on the island of Mull in Scotland about 22 kilometres (14 mi) west of Craignure. The name is from the Scottish Gaelic Locha Buidhe, meaning "yellow loch". http://lochbuie.com/Lochbuie

  • Cows and livestock winter inside a barn on a family-run farm in the Alsace village of Boofzheim, on 13th October 1997, in Boofzheim, France. The cattle are owned by the Kessler family who have a herd of cows as well as ducks from which they make Foie-Gras. The farm is in the french village of Boofzheim, a commune in the Bas-Rhin department in Alsace in north-eastern France. Its name is probably derived from the French "boeuf" (bull or ox).

  • A goat belonging to traditional Alpine farmer Peter Eberle in the courtyard of a dairy and goat farm in Balzers, Liechtenstein, on 8th February 1990, in Balzers, Liechtenstein. Liechtenstein is a landlocked Principality bordered by the Alpine countries of Austria and Switzerland and is a winter sports resort, though best known as a tax haven, attracting companies worldwide to register their assets in complete secrecy. Its agricultural output is mainly wheat, barley, corn, potatoes, livestock and dairy products though technology companies have been eroding the traditional ways of life such as Peter's for decades.

  • We are looking down from above to office and business workers who are lying down and relaxing in the grass in their lunch break at Finsbury Circus, a circular green park space in the heart of London's financial district, the City of London. Surrounding them is an art instillation of steel sheep that are incongruously grazing among the assorted people, much like they once did when London was a home to livestock en-route to market and other animals used for transport. It is a warm afternoon and in the foreground, a man wearing a dark suit has taken off his polished shoes and is lying his head on his jacket in the warm afternoon, loosening his tight tie and stretching his neck. Elsewhere, a lady is sitting eating a packed lunch with the Sun newspaper and a man a little further behind is in jeans and plimsoll shoes. The City of London has a resident population of under 10,000 but a daily working population of 311,000. The City of London is a geographically-small City within Greater London, England. The City as it is known, is the historic core of London from which, along with Westminster, the modern conurbation grew. The City's boundaries have remained constant since the Middle Ages but  it is now only a tiny part of Greater London. The City of London is a major financial centre, often referred to as just the City or as the Square Mile, as it is approximately one square mile (2.6 km) in area. London Bridge's history stretches back to the first crossing over Roman Londinium, close to this site and subsequent wooden and stone bridges have helped modern London become a financial success.

  • Lit by early sun that filters through mountain peaks to this remote village near Ulleri, in the Himalayan foothills, Nepal, we see the veranda of a tea shop that serves weary travellers trekking the Annapurna Circuit and traditional doko basket. Villages such as these partly-depend on the agriculture of rice-growing and also on the passing tourist trade. Western trekkers walk through these tiny communities on their way up the series of climbing trails of the Annapurna Conservation Sanctuary, a sometimes gruelling walk from the low hills of Pokhara to the higher altitudes of Annapurna, the (26,000 feet (8,000 metre) peak - and beyond. Tea houses are dotted along the trail offering lodging, refreshments and basic, but delicious food to the weary traveller and the landscapes are often shared with local livestock.

  • Female vet, Diana Stapleton is ecstatically happy after successfully delivering twin calves to Fresian cow at Manor House Farm, Barnoldswick near Settle, North Yorkshire, England. With the two youngsters spread on the soft straw of the barn, and their mother facing the corner of the outhouse with the resulting afterbirth still attached, Diana makes her sense of achievement clear to the farmer who must also be relived about the positive outcome. The survival of twin cattle births depends on thorough training and an instinct for animal husbandry and medical requirements. Diana Stapleton belonged to the Dalehead Veterinary Group based in nearby Settle for 15 years, covering a 20-mile area of 500 remote farms though she specialised in small animals and farmwork before dying suddenly at the age of 39.
