In the noisy bustle of London’s West End, I have been looking for sanctuaries of quietness and contemplation. I found them in the back alleys and doorways of Chinatown.
At night, when the countless restaurants compete for tourists and theatregoers, throngs of visitors collide with Chinatown’s tight-knit ethnic community. By the time the restaurants open, some of the kitchen staff have already been working since early morning. Many of them are recent immigrants who speak little more than a few words of English. Some will have clocked more than 60 hours when the week is over.

I haven't done proper corporate shoot in a while, so it was great to get the opportunity to get a glimpse into the semi-secret world of making ejector seats for fighter planes.
Martin-Baker has been the world leader in the design and manufacture of ejection and crashworthy seats for over 70 years. It's still a family-run business, and overt he years they have saved over 7,600 lives.
