Beautiful photographs by journalist Jeremy Hunter are to be exhibited in London today in celebration of religious diversity. 

From pagan horn dancers in Staffordshire to Dzogchen monks in Lincolnshire and Zoroastrianism in London, the photographs capture an eclectic array of colourful traditions from around the UK and the rest of the world.

The exhibition forms part of the government’s inter-faith week, endorsed by Mayor of London Boris Johnson, which aims to promote good relations between religions and provide increasing understanding between faiths and wider society.
