  • 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 security guard stands alongside a notice for social distance rules outside Sports Direct on Oxford Street, on 15th June 2020, in London, England.

  • The notification of a tree removal notice and injunction against obstruction is attached to the trunk of an oak tree in Sydenham Hill Woods, the scene of a protest against the proposed felling of two 100+ year-old oak trees, threatened by Southwark Council because of their proximity to 'Pissarro's' footbridge whose renovation has been deemed necessary by the local authority, on 24th November 2020, in London, England. The Nunhead to Crystal Palace (High Level) railway once passed through the Wood and Impressionist artist Camille Pissarro (1830–1903) famously painted a railway landscape from the bridge in the 1870s. Sydenham Hill Wood forms part of the largest remaining tract of the old Great North Wood, a vast area of worked coppices and wooded commons that once stretched across south London. The habitat is home to more than 200 species of trees and plants as well as rare fungi, insects, birds and woodland mammals.

  • A door painted with a high-gloss red finish is closed and a warning sign for privacy is hung to deter outsiders from entering. This briefing room belongs to the elite 'Red Arrows', Britain's prestigious Royal Air Force aerobatic team Lincolnshire, who use these offices as headquarters and administrative centre for the 90-plus displays they perform a year. The pilots' crew room is screened off from visitors and the notice says "Stop, do not enter, briefing in progress" to isolate the serious business of briefing and de-briefing. Performance appraisals before and after a training flight or air show displays are intense. Matters of safety and perfection are discussed so the aviators politely close the door unless visitors have been invited in to hear about the features of the next flight or afterwards, the gentlemanly exchanges providing analysis and frank views.

  • Two ladies are seen gossiping about someone else in the caseta (marquee) during the Spring Feria in Seville, Spain. Holding on to their small aperitif glasses the two beautiful ladies are close together comparing notes and mischievously swapping opinions during the later afternoon before a whole evening's entertainment when they will party till dawn. They are both dressed in traditional red and white flamenco dresses with red and yellow scarves around their necks. It is a lively event that Seville holds annually in the vast fairground area on the far bank of the Guadalquivir River. Rows of temporary marquee casetas, host families, corporations and friends into the late hours during the April Fair which begins begins two weeks after the Semana Santa, or Easter Holy Week in the Andalusian capital.

  • A male passenger is asleep with his mouth open, leaning his head on a bus window as it passes the background pillars of the Bank of England in the financial district City of London. On the exterior of the bus are the words: "We've got to get this city to work," an advertising slogan used by London Transport to seduce commuters from their cars and back on to public transport which is one of the most expensive world capitals on which to travel by bus, train or underground. This style of bus is a traditional design called a 'Routemaster' which has been in service on the capital's roads since 1954 and is nowadays only seen on heritage routes such as these destination: Victoria, Bond Street, Oxford Street, Holborn and Bank (the Bank of England). From any angle, the bus is easily recognisable as that classic British transport icon.  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.

  • During a fair at the famous Alexandra Palace in north London England, where the first BBC broadcasts were made in the mid-30s, the British Inventors Society (BIS) meet in a stand during a British Invention Show, an expo to help international entrepreneurs to sell their new ideas and concepts. BIS was formed in December 2003. The team that came together includes leading inventors and innovators, academics and entrepreneurs who share a common belief - that invention is the vital spark that drives the world's technology and new orders of wealth creation. But there is no-one at home here, its stand remains unoccupied with vacated seats seen through the open doorway and beneath the plain sign. It is a comical and ironic scene, of unfulfilled ambition and failing innovation.

  • 'Last Day' is written on a closed taylors business in London, a victim of the UK recession. Reduced prices and services are listed on the glass with a poster urging customers to grab a bargain. Around a recession-bled Britain, high-street businesses have been going bust in their thousands. Britain has now endured eight recessions since the Second World War. No two recessions are alike, and that applies to the current slowdown also. It has been caused by a shock to the availability of credit, a massive build up of debt. The number of people out of work currently stands at almost two million. Given the rate at which the economy is deteriorating this could easily be above three million. From a continuing piece of work about windows and urban messages, the picture is from the project of closed business windows: 'Bust - the Art of Recession'.
