    My first thought was 'it's his left hand, is the picture reversed?' But it wasn't - from the writing. Then I looked closer - he's shading his eyes. But that's not where the sun is coming from. And it's in the UK and when did we have sun like that?

    So, an intriguing picture.

    I don’t know if he was saluting; you could be right. It was last Friday in London, with a clear sky and harsh winter light casting long shadows.

    Hola! I like what we can see (the character and his shadow, the bright colors, the posters on the wall) and the way the protagonist's gaze invites us to imagine the reason for his curiosity...
