Prolific amateur filmmaker Sydney Martin captures the streets of central London in all their regal splendour in the days after the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. The streets are still crowded with visitors still looking to catch a glimpse of the decorations all around London, from the Mall to Trafalgar Square and Nelson's Column. If you look carefully you can see signs of the cleanup that is to come following the events of the last few days!
