A bright maple leaf rests on the rim of a large cup of tea, its pointed outline clear against the warm drink. More gold and crimson leaves lie across the wooden counter, beside biscuits and a steaming copper urn. Behind them, a small railway tea kiosk glows beneath a high timber canopy while snow gathers along the roof.

At the serving hatch, a woman seen from behind lifts a burgundy cap above a cascade of autumn leaves in her long hair. A traveler in a dark overcoat and felt hat sits nearby. Their quiet silhouettes remain part of the larger setting, where hanging bulbs, cups and amber wood hold a pocket of warmth against the weather.

A train waits on the platform beyond, its lit windows stretching into the blue night. Snow falls past the dark fir trees and collects beside the wet stone walkway. The unusual meeting of crisp autumn leaves and deep snow gives this scene a gentle Halloween mood. This photograph is free to reuse, including for commercial projects.
