Funeral Splendor

Shot with Olympus E510
London's East End villains are notorious for their funeral cortège, always with a coach and horses like this. Ronnie & Reggie Kray were two such, but they had six horses. Well, they would, wouldn't they. The urban legend runs that Reggies's funeral cortège went over the Bow flyover, as one of his adversaries remains in the concrete foundations. It is certainly possible.



(And as I would have been uncomfortable photographing a funeral for your entertainment, I was pleased to come across the empty carriage)
