The Forgotten War for Bangladesh
The birth of Bangladesh was a bloody and painful process. I photographed the murals below in Dhaka in 1991.

Mile End Madonna
Mile End Station pulls underground passengers to its entrance and retains a minority of them as they emerge from their journey to wait for a friend. When I saw the Lady below waiting for a friend I was reminded of the enclosed statues of the Madonna I was introduced to as a child. The Mile End Madonna fortunately isn’t the product of mythology.

Cycling, Walking and pushing
I have been to meetings on my estate where discussions around parking disintegrated into a shouting match. I have never owned a car and have always thought that London requires its population to walk, cycle or push like the two elegant ladies below.

Osborn Street runs directly into Brick Lane and in recent years has been a shabby cousin of ‘the Lane’. The passing cyclists designer bike and white high heels is undoubtedly on her way to a chicer place than Osborn Street!
