Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2T20EG8 - Coprinus comatus, commonly known as the shaggy ink cap, lawyer's wig, or shaggy mane, is a common fungus often seen growing on lawns, along gravel roads and waste areas. The young fruit bodies first appear as white cylinders emerging from the ground, then the bell-shaped caps open out. The caps are white, and covered with scales?this is the origin of the common names of the fungus. The gills beneath the cap are white, then pink, then turn black and deliquesce ('melt') into a black liquid filled with spores (hence the ink cap name).[2] This mushroom is unusual because it will turn black and dissolve itself in a matter of hours after being picked or depositing spores.
When young it is an excellent edible mushroom provided that it is eaten soon after being collected (it keeps very badly because of the autodigestion of its gills and cap). If long-term storage is desired, microwaving, sauteing or simmering until limp will allow the mushrooms to be stored in a refrigerator for several days or frozen. Also, placing the mushrooms in a glass of ice water will delay the decomposition for a day or two so that one has time to incorporate them into a meal. Processing or icing must be done whether for eating or storage within four to six hours of harvest to prevent undesirable changes to the mushroom. The species is cultivated in China as food.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PNYK - This image shows a barley field in early summer, with green ears of barley beginning to form as the crop develops toward maturity. The photograph was taken in Cheshire, England, a county known for its mix of arable farming and pastoral agriculture.
Barley is a key UK cereal crop, widely grown for food production, animal feed, and brewing, and its distinctive awns create a textured, wind-swept appearance during late spring and early summer. The soft light and shallow depth of field emphasise the density and vitality of the crop, conveying themes of seasonality, growth, and rural productivity.
The image is suitable for editorial and commercial use illustrating British agriculture, farming cycles, food supply, rural landscapes, sustainability, and countryside environments, as well as conceptual uses related to nature, harvest, and seasonal change.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2CB00AP - Papaver somniferum, commonly known as the opium poppy or breadseed poppy, is a species of flowering plant in the family Papaveraceae. It is the species of plant from which both opium and poppy seeds are derived and is also a valuable ornamental plant, grown in gardens. Its native range is probably the eastern Mediterranean, but is now obscured by ancient introductions and cultivation, being naturalized across much of Europe and Asia.
This poppy is grown as an agricultural crop on a large scale, for one of three primary purposes. The first is to produce seeds that are eaten by humans, known commonly as poppy seed. The second is to produce opium for use mainly by the pharmaceutical industry. The third is to produce other alkaloids, mainly thebaine and oripavine, that are processed by the pharmaceutical industry into drugs such as hydrocodone and oxycodone. Each of these goals has special breeds that are targeted at one of these businesses, and breeding efforts (including biotechnological ones) are continually underway. A comparatively small amount of Papaver somniferum is also produced commercially for ornamental purposes.
The common name opium poppy is increasingly a misnomer as many varieties have been bred that do not produce a significant quantity of opium. The cultivar 'Sujata' produces no latex at all. Breadseed poppy is more accurate as a common name today because all varieties of Papaver somniferum produce edible seeds. This differentiation has strong implications for legal policy surrounding the growing of this plant

Iconic pub The Woodman to close after 'HS2 works' and cost of living crisis 'kills' business
The cult pub plans to sell as much beer as possible before liquidators get their hands on it after being 'isolated' by HS2 works
One of Birmingham's oldest pubs is calling last orders for the final time. Despite putting up a brave fight, The Woodman pub has thrown in the towel after years of being 'isolated by HS2 works'.
The iconic Victorian venue, based on New Canal Street, by Millennium Point, says it has faced an uphill battle ever since work began for Curzon Street railway station located 20-feet away. Roads leading to the back-street boozer were cut off and cones, scaffolding and barriers became synonymous with the pub's identity.
Last year, general manager Will Young said it was miraculous that the 125-year-old pub still traded on the heels of the pandemic. He hoped the venue would survive HS2 and Covid disruptions and come out the other side stronger and on a whole new level.
But sadly, it is not to be. The beloved watering hole has announced it will close its doors permanently after being ravaged.
It said: Friends, family, regular customers and those who we see less regularly....it's finally happened. Nine years after rescuing the pub from dilapidation, The Woodman will be ceasing to trade.
We have battled hard to keep our favourite pub in the world open through adversity. But in the end, the combination of the relentless HS2 encroachment (which has begun to feel like there is no end in sight), the pandemic, the cost of living crisis and the soaring fuel prices...have beaten us.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2D9H19X - The modern combine harvester, or simply combine, is a versatile machine designed to efficiently harvest a variety of grain crops. The name derives from its combining three separate harvesting operations?reaping, threshing, and winnowing?into a single process. Among the crops harvested with a combine are wheat, oats, rye, barley, corn (maize), sorghum, soybeans, flax (linseed), sunflowers and canola. The separated straw, left lying on the field, comprises the stems and any remaining leaves of the crop with limited nutrients left in it: the straw is then either chopped, spread on the field and ploughed back in or baled for bedding and limited-feed for livestock.
Combine harvesters are one of the most economically important labour saving inventions, significantly reducing the fraction of the population engaged in agriculture

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy PBRY43 - Barley (Hordeum vulgare), a member of the grass family, is a major cereal grain grown in temperate climates globally. It was one of the first cultivated grains, particularly in Eurasia as early as 10,000 years ago. Barley has been used as animal fodder, as a source of fermentable material for beer and certain distilled beverages, and as a component of various health foods. It is used in soups and stews, and in barley bread of various cultures. Barley grains are commonly made into malt in a traditional and ancient method of preparation.
In 2014, barley was ranked fourth among grains in quantity produced (144 million tonnes) behind maize, rice and wheat.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy GY19WJ - Maize also known as corn, is a cereal grain first domesticated by indigenous peoples in southern Mexico about 10,000 years ago. The leafy stalk of the plant produces pollen inflorescences and separate ovuliferous inflorescences called ears that yield kernels or seeds, which are fruits.
Maize has become a staple food in many parts of the world, with the total production of maize surpassing that of wheat or rice. However, little of this maize is consumed directly by humans: most is used for corn ethanol, animal feed and other maize products, such as corn starch and corn syrup. The six major types of maize are dent corn, flint corn, pod corn, popcorn, flour corn, and sweet corn.
Maize is widely cultivated throughout the world, and a greater weight of maize is produced each year than any other grain. In 2014, total world production was 1.04 billion tonnes, led by the United States with 35% of the total. China produced 21% of the global total.
In 2016, maize (corn) production was forecast to be over 15 billion bushels, an increase of 11% over 2014 American production. Based on conditions as of August 2016, the expected yield would be the highest ever for the United States. The area of harvested maize was forecast to be 87 million acres, an increase of 7% over 2015. Maize is especially popular in Midwestern states such as Indiana and Illinois
in the latter, it was named the state's official grain in 2017

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PNT5 - This photograph shows a woman standing outdoors holding an exceptionally large marrow, a traditional British garden vegetable, grown domestically. The image was taken outside Grappenhall Community Library, located on Victoria Avenue, Grappenhall, Warrington, Cheshire (WA4 2PE), close to Albert Road.
Grappenhall Community Library serves as a local community hub, providing library services and space for neighbourhood activities and events. The informal setting and relaxed pose suggest a local-interest or community-based moment, linking food growing and gardening culture with shared civic spaces.
Oversized marrows are a familiar feature of UK home gardening and allotment culture, often associated with summer harvests, gardening competitions, and community sharing. The image reflects themes of self-sufficiency, sustainability, local food, and everyday village life in suburban England.
The photograph is suitable for editorial and lifestyle use covering gardening, food growing, community engagement, British villages, sustainability, and local news features.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DDXGEP - Hay production and harvest, colloquially known as making hay, haymaking, or doing hay, involves a multiple step process: cutting, drying or curing, processing, and storing. Hayfields do not have to be reseeded each year in the way that grain crops are, but regular fertilizing is usually desirable, and overseeding a field every few years helps increase yield.
Methods and the terminology to describe the steps of making hay have varied greatly throughout history, and many regional variations still exist today. However, whether done by hand or by modern mechanized equipment, tall grass and legumes at the proper stage of maturity must be cut, then allowed to dry (preferably by the sun), then raked into long, narrow piles known as windrows. Next, the cured hay is gathered up in some form (usually by some type of baling process) and placed for storage into a haystack or into a barn or shed to protect it from moisture and rot.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DB0GF7 - Wheat is a cereal grain, originally from the Levant region of the Near East and Ethiopian Highlands, but now cultivated worldwide. In 2010, world production of wheat was 651 million tons, making it the third most-produced cereal after maize (844 million tons) and rice (672 million tons). Wheat was the second most-produced cereal in 2009
world production in that year was 682 million tons, after maize (817 million tons), and with rice as a close third (679 million tons).
This grain is grown on more land area than any other commercial food.
World trade in wheat is greater than for all other crops combined. Globally, wheat is the leading source of vegetable protein in human food, having a higher protein content than other major cereals, maize (corn) or rice. In terms of total production tonnages used for food, it is currently second to rice as the main human food crop and ahead of maize, after allowing for maize's more extensive use in animal feeds.
Wheat was a key factor enabling the emergence of city-based societies at the start of civilization because it was one of the first crops that could be easily cultivated on a large scale, and had the additional advantage of yielding a harvest that provides long-term storage of food. Wheat contributed to the emergence of city-states in the Fertile Crescent, including the Babylonian and Assyrian empires.
Wheat grain is a staple food used to make flour for leavened, flat and steamed breads, biscuits, cookies, cakes, breakfast cereal, pasta, noodles, couscous and for fermentation to make beer, other alcoholic beverages, or biofuel.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DE9B2X - One Angel Square[1] is an office building in Manchester, England. Construction work began in 2010 and was completed in February 2013. The landmark building is the head office of the Co-operative Group. Standing 72.5 metres (237.8 feet) tall, the building forms the centrepiece of the new ?œ800 million NOMA development in the northern quarter of Manchester city centre. The building cost at least ?œ105 million to construct and was sold on leaseback terms in 2013 for ?œ142 million.
One Angel Square is one of the most sustainable large buildings in Europe and is built to a BREEAM 'Outstanding' rating.[12] It is powered by a biodiesel cogeneration plant using rapeseed oil to provide electricity and heat.[10] The structure makes use of natural resources, maximising passive solar gain for heat and using natural ventilation through its double-skin facade, adiabatic cooling, rainwater harvesting, greywater recycling and waste heat recycling.
The building's distinctive form has been compared to a sliced egg and a ship. Its design was announced by architects 3DReid in May 2009 and construction began in July 2010 with a projected completion date in March 2013. In December 2012, the scheme surpassed its pan-European sustainability aims and achieved a world-record BREEAM score of 95.32%. It is also an energy-plus building, producing surplus energy and zero carbon emissions. The building has received numerous awards for its striking aesthetic and sustainability aims.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HDK8 - A vivid close-up image of fresh British strawberries, featuring one strawberry cut cleanly in half to reveal its pale interior flesh, radiating white core, and dense pattern of tiny edible seeds set into the bright red skin. The surrounding whole strawberries create a richly textured background, emphasising the fruit's ripeness, natural sheen and intense colour, which are strongly associated with peak summer harvest in the United Kingdom.
Strawberries are one of Britain's most recognisable seasonal fruits and are closely linked to early summer, outdoor eating and local produce. The macro perspective highlights the delicate surface texture, moisture and structural detail of the fruit, drawing attention to its freshness and natural form rather than any artificial presentation. The green calyx remains attached, reinforcing the impression of recently picked produce and minimal handling.
The image conveys themes of seasonal abundance, healthy eating and natural food production. Strawberries are widely associated with vitamins, antioxidants and plant-based diets, and their visual appeal makes them a staple subject for food publishing, packaging and marketing. The strong red colour palette, fine detail and shallow depth of field give the image high impact for both editorial and commercial use.
This photograph is well suited for editorial use covering food, nutrition, agriculture, seasonal eating and British produce, as well as commercial applications such as food marketing, packaging design, recipe illustration, health campaigns and lifestyle content focused on freshness, quality and summer produce.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy CEMX26 - A traditional British windmill rises above a field of ripe golden wheat at the height of summer harvest time, photographed in the English countryside under a clear blue sky. The white tower mill, with its sails fully extended, stands as a strong symbol of rural heritage and historic food production, contrasting with the dense, sunlit heads of wheat in the foreground. The scene captures the peak of the agricultural season, when cereal crops reach maturity and the landscape takes on its distinctive warm, amber tones.
Windmills such as this once played a vital role in rural communities, harnessing natural wind power to grind grain into flour and supporting local farming economies long before modern industrial milling. Today they remain enduring landmarks within the British countryside, representing craftsmanship, sustainability, and the long relationship between agriculture, energy, and food supply. The wheat field emphasises themes of arable farming, seasonal labour, and the cycles of planting and harvest that still define much of rural England.
The image conveys a strong sense of place and season, combining traditional architecture with working farmland at a moment of abundance. It is well suited for editorial use covering agriculture, rural life, British heritage, food production, sustainability, and seasonal change, as well as commercial applications requiring classic countryside imagery associated with farming, harvest, and the English rural landscape.
