An unguarded moment...

My goodness. A little context, if you'll allow me.

I believe this photograph was taken by Mr. Moriarty shortly after he attempted to execute the trompement riche, which I was able to successfully counter with what I like to call the 'three thrusts & parry' manoeuvre. It was near the end of the match, for we are standing in the morning sunlight as you can see.

Thank you very much for sharing this photograph. What a joy it is.

I do like the curtains in that picture, Mycroft.

They're very striking curtains, especially in the morning sunlight as I said.
