Church interior. The lights are off so it is tenebrous inside, drawing attention to the gothic window; the orange is from the brick houses opposite. Restoration work is going so so parts of the nave are fenced off.

Inside the church during building work. Various objects are covered in sheets to protect them from dust. The light is playing on the stone pillars.

Interior of the church while constructions work is going on. We are looking towards the light of a stained-glass window while the foreground is in darkness; drapes on the left are protecting some of the church interior from dust.

A black and white view of the Bristol harbour. Across the river, the Balmoral is moored at the quay; behind it are two pairs of historic cranes and the building of M Shed, the famous museum.
