I do not promise you the shadow of Hamlet, but I met something similar at night on Nevsky Prospekt.
Prince Mikhail Bogdanovich Barclay de Tolly (born Michael Andreas Barclay de Tolly, German Michael Andreas Barclay de Tolly, 16 [27] December 1761 - 14 [26] May 1818) was a Russian commander of Scotch-German origin.
Every commander could be proud of such a track record, but today we are interested in shadows. Can you imagine what an important shadow I met that night?
Тень Гамлета я вам не обещаю, но что-то похожее мне встретилось ночью на Невском проспекте.
Князь Михаи́л Богда́нович Баркла́й-де-То́лли (при рождении Михаэль Андреас Барклай де Толли, нем. Michael Andreas Barclay de Tolly, 16 [27] декабря 1761 — 14 [26] мая 1818) — русский полководец шотландско-немецкого происхождения.
Таким послужным списком мог бы гордиться каждый полководец, но нас сегодня интересуют тени. Представляете какую важную тень я встретил в ту ночь?

Opposite the left wing of the Kazan Cathedral stands a similar monument to the commander Kutuzov.
Count (1811), Most Serene Prince (1812) Mikhail Illarionovich Golenishchev-Kutuzov (September 5 [16], 1745, St. Petersburg - April 16 [28], 1813, Bunzlau) - Russian commander, statesman and diplomat, field marshal general from of the Golenishchev-Kutuzov family, participant in the Russian-Turkish wars, commander-in-chief of the Russian army during the Patriotic War of 1812. Kazan, Vyatka and Lithuanian Governor-General, St. Petersburg and Kiev military governor. Plenipotentiary Ambassador to Turkey. The first full knight of the Order of St. George. From 1812 he was called the Most Serene Prince Golenishchev-Kutuzov-Smolensky.
However, I could not find his shadow, apparently he is more cautious and modest.
Claude's horses were not distinguished by caution, but these shadows are completely invisible in summer. Water absorbs not only light and people. Now ... in the snow ... however, you can see everything for yourself.
The Fontanka River is covered with ice, but I wouldn't risk getting on it. It's not about fast currents, there are none here. But in some places warm waters of economic activity get into the water of the river. I'm not talking about their purity, maybe they are clean, but they are definitely warmer than water in the river and can wash away the ice from below. As a result, you can simply fall through the ice. But these people in the photo do not know or do not think about it.
Зимой в пасмурный день сложно найти отчётливые тени. Но уличное освещение ночью может помочь в нашей охоте. Порой стоит пройти тёмными дворами, чтобы очутиться перед новой находкой.
Yes, to see the shadow, you need to find the light. These are two sides of the same coin, this is the Yin and Yang of our being.

Winter shadows are really quite striking on a smooth sheen of snow. Very nice, and a very neat history lesson, too.
Hi @wwwiebe

History is a complex thing, and historical figures are contradictory. But this is our story :)
