In mid-2008, these new modern lamp posts were installed on Goodmayes Lane as the old 1980s lamp posts with Philips SGS203 lanterns were getting a little worse for wear. The new lanterns are made in Belgium by a company called Urbis and are called Furyos. I took this shot through the rear screen of the car as it is a nice, sweeping curve and gives the perfect opportunity to really appreciate these installations.
