Covering more than 18,000 miles in 14 countries of the former Soviet Union from Estonia to Kyrgyzstan, Christopher's photographic journey reveals an astonishing variety of styles from stark Brutalism to the downright wacky.

Cleveland photographer Seph Lawless has explored thirteen abandoned houses across the United States. With their stunning architectural features, Mr Lawless says they epitomise the perfect haunted mansion. The homes are displayed in all their ghastly splendour in his new book, 'Hauntingly Beautiful.' But does he believe ghosts are for real?

British photographer Tommy Clarke saved up some money, found a willing pilot, took a deep breath and then hung out of a helicopter to get the best possible aerial shots of where the waves hit the shore. In his distinctive ocean photos, the seas glisten green and blue but the colours that feature in his most recent work - the salt flats of California and Utah - are right at the other end of the spectrum: reds, oranges, pinks and ochres bring to mind a devilish Rothko canvas.

Vicky Mohieddeen is a British woman who regularly visits North Korea from Beijing where she works for a tour company that takes foreigners into the "Hermit Kingdom". She knows the place well, has a respect for its people but realises too that she can't allow herself - or the revealing images she takes and puts on social media - to act as a mouthpiece for the country, so often condemned as aggressive and belligerent by the international community. She says she's not interested in taking those cliched "rare glimpse" pictures, but wants to use her photos of daily life in Pyongyang and beyond to connect.

What was it about Audrey Hepburn that captivated some of the 20th Century's most famous portrait and fashion photographers, from Richard Avedon to Cecil Beaton? Extremely rare photos of the actress - some of which have never been seen in public - are part of a forthcoming exhibition at London's National Portrait Gallery. Co-curator Terence Pepper tells us why Audrey Hepburn's beauty is so timeless

Palmyra, Syria, is considered one of the world's most important cultural heritage sites. In August, the UN confirmed the so-called Islamic State had destroyed many precious structures at the site. Late in 2010, before the Arab uprising, Georgia-based amateur photographer, Teo Jioshvili, took a series of remarkable photos depicting the beauty of Palmyra.

The late Manchester street photographer Shirley Baker captured scenes of family life in some of the poorest neighbourhoods during the 1960s. Rather than depicting sadness and deprivation, however, the images show a certain "joie de vivre." Anna Douglas, curator of a forthcoming exhibition at The Photographers' Gallery in London, explains how Shirley Baker celebrated life with her lens.

The BBC World Service is the world's largest international broadcaster, broadcasting in 27 languages to many parts of the world via analogue and digital shortwave, internet streaming and podcasting, satellite, FM and MW relays. It is politically independent (by mandate of the Agreement providing details of the topics outlined in the BBC Charter),non-profit, and commercial-free.
The English language service broadcasts 24 hours a day. In June 2009 the BBC reported that the World Service's average weekly audience reached 188 million people. The World Service is funded by grant-in-aid through the Foreign and Commonwealth Office by the British Government. From 2014, it will be funded by the compulsory BBC licence fee levied on every household in the United Kingdom using a television to watch broadcast programmes.
BBC World Service is a patron of The Radio Academy. The Director of the World Service is Peter Horrocks.
The BBC World Service began as the BBC Empire Service in 1932 as a shortwave service, and celebrated its 80th anniversary on 29 February 2012. Its broadcasts were aimed principally at English speakers in the outposts of the British Empire, or as George V put it in the first-ever Royal Christmas Message, the "men and women, so cut off by the snow, the desert, or the sea, that only voices out of the air can reach them."

BBC World News is the BBC's international news and current affairs television channel. It has the largest audience of any BBC channel in the world. Launched on 11 March 1991 as the BBC World Service Television outside of Europe, with its name changed to BBC World in 1995 and to BBC World News in 2008, it broadcasts for 24-hours with television programming including BBC News bulletins, documentaries, lifestyle programmes and interviews. Its main global competitor is CNN International, though it also competes with other major news broadcasting companies. It employs more correspondents, reporters, and international bureaus than any other news channel.
Unlike the BBC's domestic channels, BBC World News is not funded by a licence fee. Instead, it is funded commercially by advertising.
On 21 April 2008, the channel changed its name from BBC World to BBC World News as part of a £550,000 rebranding of the BBC's news output, including a new visual identity. The channel later moved into the renovated former studio of the BBC News channel.

The Dogs were a 1990s hip hop group consisting of Disco Rick, Keith Bell, Labrant Dennis and Fergus "Cracked Up" Smith, best known for "Crack Rock," their hit single with the chant "Yo' Mama's on Crack Rock!" The group released three studio albums The Dogs in 1990, Beware of The Dogs in 1991 and K-9 Bass in 1992.
Labrant Dennis was arrested in May 1996 for the double murder of Marlin Barnes, a University of Miami football player, and Timwaneka Lumpkin, his exgirlfriend.

'Parteras' are traditional Mexican midwives; their skill at delivering babies has been honed over centuries. But during emergencies, lack of resources and infrastructure can have serious consequences especially in remote places like in the southernmost state of Chiapas, which has among the highest childbirth mortality rates in the country. Photographer Janet Jarman traveled extensively through Chiapas last year, and documented an initiative to get midwives and hospitals in the region working together.

London's traditional pubs are shutting their doors at a rate of roughly 30 a week. But some manage to avoid closure by reinventing themselves as hip entertainment spaces. East London, home to many of the capital's original public houses (as they were historically known) is witness to this trend - the result of a struggling economy, rising alcohol taxes and smoke-free laws. Photographer Jan Klos pays homage to a vanishing institution with striking portraits of some of East London's most beloved watering holes.
