UK - London - Dropped hat samaritan and MI6 building

A kind stranger picks-up a hat belonging to another pedestrian by a construction hoarding, a night time panorama of the Thames south bank, featuring the HQ of the intelligence service (MI6) and adjacent apartments across the river in Vauxhall. Under the gaze of a CCTV camera, the gentleman retrieves the item for another (unseen) person as his friend points to alert its owner.
The temporary hoarding will stay in place for the time that the company's new residential riverfront apartments are under construction. In the image, the building at Vauxhall Cross, is located at 85 Albert Embankment beside Vauxhall Bridge. It is known within the intelligence community as "Legoland" and "Babylon-on-Thames".
