Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DM99BB - A straight-on, documentary view of the Flower of Scotland shopfront at 98 Canongate on Edinburgh's Royal Mile, photographed in crisp winter light. The signage across the fascia is clear and readable, with additional wording highlighting Harris Tweed, Cashmere and Scottish Gifts, immediately signalling a tourism-focused retail offer. Large display windows are packed with colourful merchandise, including tartan and knitwear items, racks of souvenirs, and dense point-of-sale displays that create a bright, busy storefront against the darker stonework of the historic Old Town streetscape.
The composition captures the commercial character of the Canongate section of the Royal Mile, where visitors browse for practical cold-weather purchases and Scotland-themed mementos. The pavement and road edge provide a strong horizontal base, while the illuminated interior draws the eye into the shop, suggesting warmth and activity on a cold day. The scene suits editorial uses around Edinburgh tourism, souvenir retail, Royal Mile shopping culture, and the visitor economy, as well as broader themes of heritage streets and modern tourist consumption in historic city centres.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3DM97Y4 - A wide, documentary view down the main aisle of Stockport Market Hall, showing a dense arrangement of indoor stalls and merchandise displays typical of a working British covered market. The perspective leads the eye along the tiled walkway beneath the high roof structure and painted beams, with stall counters and tables packed with goods on both sides. In the foreground, piles of brightly patterned cushions and home textiles create an immediate splash of colour, while further back the scene opens into a layered mix of household items, small gift products, and everyday shopping essentials. Hanging fabrics and banners add to the sense of visual bustle and the slightly improvised charm of market retail.
The lighting reads as natural daytime light filtering through the market hall structure, giving a practical, realistic look rather than a staged retail environment. The atmosphere feels functional and community-oriented: traders set up for routine business, shoppers browsing at walking pace, and the market acting as a steady town-centre draw beyond the big-brand high street. Small details such as sale signage and tightly packed stock suggest value-led shopping and the kind of bargain-hunting culture associated with indoor markets across Greater Manchester.
Editorially, the photograph is useful for stories about independent traders, local economies, and the continued role of markets as social hubs and affordable shopping destinations. It can also support regeneration narratives where historic market halls are positioned as anchors for town-centre renewal, footfall, and community activity. As a location image, it provides a recognisable sense of place and scale for Stockport Market, capturing the everyday texture of northern English retail life in a heritage market setting.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K0GF9G - On Penny Lane There is a Barber..
In his iconic song, Paul McCartney sang about the barbers where the Beatles used to get their hair cut in Liverpool. The barber shop, Bioletti's, like nearly all of the places referred to in the song, was not on Penny Lane itself but on Smithdown Place, overlooking the ?roundabout' with the bus shelter.
A change of ownership meant that Bioletti's became Tony Slavin's, but it is still a barber shop (and now also a ladies salon). Where else could you have your hair done at a reasonable price and share in Beatles history at the same time?
The Ladies salon (upstairs) used to be a flat in the Beatles' days, but the barber shop downstairs still looks much the same as when the Beatles used to sit and wait for a trim.
Beatles fans are always welcome ? either to have their hair done in the same place as the Beatles
.. or to stop and say hello. Visitors are welcome to look around, take photographs, and sit in the barbers' chairs. In return, donations for the Linda McCartney Centre are gratefully accepted. There are also some unique souvenirs available to buy.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K0KPHB - Penny Lane is a road in the south Liverpool suburb of Mossley Hill. The name also applies to the area surrounding its junction with Smithdown Road and Allerton Road, and to the roundabout at Smithdown Place that was the location for a major bus terminus, originally an important tram junction of Liverpool Corporation Tramways. The roundabout was a frequent stopping place for John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison during their years as schoolchildren and students. Bus journeys via Penny Lane and the area itself subsequently became familiar elements in the early years of the Lennon?McCartney songwriting partnership. In 2009, McCartney reflected:
Penny Lane was kind of nostalgic, but it was really [about] a place that John and I knew ... I'd get a bus to his house and I'd have to change at Penny Lane, or the same with him to me, so we often hung out at that terminus, like a roundabout. It was a place that we both knew, and so we both knew the things that turned up in the story.
Lennon's original lyrics for In My Life had included a reference to Penny Lane. Soon after the Beatles recorded In My Life in October 1965, McCartney mentioned to an interviewer that he wanted to write a song about Penny Lane. A year later, he was spurred to write the song once presented with Lennon's Strawberry Fields Forever. McCartney also cited Dylan Thomas's nostalgic poem Fern Hill as an inspiration for Penny Lane. Lennon co-wrote the lyrics with McCartney. He recalled in a 1970 interview: The bank was there, and that was where the trams sheds were and people waiting and the inspector stood there, the fire engines were down there. It was reliving childhood

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy HDWT82 - Murals in Northern Ireland have become symbols of Northern Ireland, depicting the region's past and present political and religious divisions.
Belfast and Derry contain arguably the most famous political murals in Europe. It is believed that almost 2,000 murals have been documented since the 1970s. In 2014, the book, The Belfast Mural Guide estimated that, in Belfast, there were approximately 300 quality murals on display, with many more in varying degrees of age and decay. Murals commemorate, communicate and display aspects of culture and history. The themes of murals often reflect what is important to a particular community. A mural therefore exists to express an idea or message and could generally be seen as reflecting values held dear to that community.
In Irish republican areas the themes of murals can range from the 1981 Irish hunger strike, with particular emphasis on strike leader Bobby Sands
murals of international solidarity with revolutionary groups are equally common, as are those which highlight a particular issue, for example the Ballymurphy Massacre or the McGurk's Bar bombing. In working class unionist communities, murals are used to promote Ulster loyalist paramilitary groups such as the Ulster Defence Association and Ulster Volunteer Force and commemorate their deceased members. However traditional themes such as William III of England and the Battle of the Boyne, the Battle of the Somme and the 36th Ulster Division are equally common
