LONDON -- If most people ran around London naked, hanging off rooftops or running through tube stations, they'd probably be arrested, however World Freerun Championship winner Tim Shieff managed to get away with it.

He stripped off and scaled some of London's most stunning architecture for a new photo series by fellow parkour athlete Jason Paul entitled "Man & Mortar". The images were inspired by the juxtaposition found within the architecture of modern Greek cities full of statues and monuments from the ancient world, they say. ''Lots of the London architecture we shot against has a square, rigid and linear feel to it, contrasting starkly with the curves of the athletic, natural human form," photographer Jason Paul added.

The project is supported by Jamie Oliver, with a percentage of sales going towards his charity for disadvantaged teenagers, the Fifteen apprentice programme.
