This picture was submitted by Juliet Davis, a PhD student and Tutorial Fellow in the Sociology Department.
How the photo relates to the theme of 'risk':
"Taken during the recent snow falls, this photo depicts Hackney Council workers short on grit breaking up the ice to reduce the risk of (and the council's liability in the event of) pedestrians slipping over and injuring themselves. An effect is to increase risk of slippage for cyclists. The photo was taken through a window which reflects a fire behind, a rather different kind of contained danger or risk."
