When you film an ex-mod and rockers biker wedding, you know it ain’t gonna be down at no church. And that’s exactly what led me to the Ace Cafe, London. The Ace is petrolhead, rock n’ roll heaven, especially if you get there for one of the regular meet nights, for anything from Harleys to Smart Cars. For a total cultural curve ball, walk a few minutes round the corner where a piece of India fell from the sky: Neasden Hindu Temple, made from 2,000 tonnes of carved marble. Need one say more.

What a gem of a find. Not only does the UK institution, Tate, collect and exhibit great art. They also make quality films about it, too. There’s hundreds on their channel for me to get my art fix and they seem to be constantly releasing new ones every week. I’ve seen artist studio visits, artist profiles, films by commissioned artists, and experimental stuff. I couldn’t choose a favourite, so you get two: one on author Maurice Sendak (Where The Wild Things Are) — above — and this really fun time-lapse — below.

Urban Explorers spend their time venturing to places where most would be either too scared or not stupid enough to try. Either way, there’s an undeniable draw to the photos and stories from these covert missions. 28 Days Later is a UK forum where you can read personal accounts and fill your boots on pictures from skyscrapers and crack dens.

Some subjects you just know will make a great tilt-shift video, so when we heard of a picturesque English village where every Easter, hundreds of people gather to carry a cross up a hill, our eyes lit up. Camera and lenses packed, we headed off for what turned out to be a very Good Friday.

Does this count as travel photography? Hopefully one day we’ll all get to experience what a select few astronauts have felt floating up above our blue planet. Until that time, we have their photo mementos instead. Exploring this NASA site isn’t the easiest. And that‘s half the fun. It’s a pure lucky dip. Start in the collections and move onto missions.

I’m so happy the Teddy Grays family let Magnum photographer Martin Parr loose with a camera in their 194 year-old sweet factory, otherwise this documentary might never have existed. A beautifully intimate portrait of a family business frozen in time, with characters almost as old as the copper pots, who painstakingly churn out endless pear drops, pineapple chunks, cola pips and minty humbugs in the same way as generations before them. It’s working-class Wonka, and like watching the industrial revolution take place before your very eyes.

I’m a sucker for a good time-lapse film, getting to see a new place in a new way. Producing a static shot of a single subject is tough enough, but this dude absolutely kills it by adding in seemingly impossible moves through his city of choice. Singapore, Moscow and Belarus (see below) all get the treatment.
