Lost lead

I went out for a walk in Wanstead Park and took several photos I could have blipped. I choose this one because I felt that there was a story behind it.
It could represent the opening scene ofa novel or a romance or a thriller......

The park is a good place for a walk in the winter as there are some good non-muddy paths. Not all of them though and my new boots (blipped when bought) are now well and truely christened!
