The first one was a couple of nights ago, a very thin layer, which disappeared quickly again. Didn’t “count” ;-)

I had to rotate the image for straightness, but then noticed the background was set to red, and liked how that looked with the red hat in contrast with the blue sky and coat. So I left it like that, instead of cutting the corners to get just the photo.

As you can see, you’re not allowed to walk on the tracks from either side! ;-)

Tomorrow might just be too late though, as the forecast claims it’s all gonna melt tonight, and we’ll have sleet and hail kinda weather. So, I left it till dark, and then remembered I could take a longer exposure shot. This one’s taken from my balcony with a tripod: F/11, 13 seconds, ISO-200. A genuine outdoors tungsten light photo :-)

As for the title, if you look very closely you’ll see him at the far end of the field, to the left of a thin young tree. Here’s a close-up from another photo taken a few seconds earlier, it’s a rather big one.

At the bottom there’s a permanently closed gate to a private garden, and at the top there’s an equally permanently closed door to the tube platform. It was probably an alternative exit from the tube station at some point, but that must have been a long time ago.
