Difficult to say it's a great shot, because of the subject. But the expression on the 3 pall bearers, and the background chap, says it all - shouldn't have died. Brazen shot!

Excellent and emotional photograph which both packs a punch and carries a message.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Thanks for the comments on this difficult subject, I found the experience very emotional at times. The purpose of the photography was to record the funeral for the Rifles, not to get images that sell newspapers. So out of the two hundred images there are none of the grieving family.
