I came across this guy lying on the lawn at the Jubilee Gardens near the London Eye . . . it was a cold, sunny slightly hazy autumn day . . . he looked so at ease and comfortable in his heavy coat.
There is something Nautical about his attire . . it reminds me of my earlier years . . as a student and when I was at sea on an Oil ship around the british isles and Northern Europe . . great memories.
