Hi Folks,

During the New York City Marathon as I was photographing a watering 
station along a Brooklyn street,
I stepped back after getting splashed with Gatorade to wipe the camera 
off and saw this elderly
gentleman sitting in his fenced off area of his garden. I was using a 
35mm and knew I had no chance
for a tighter shot by moving up, knowing if he saw me he would either 
cover up or leave.
I got off one frame before he did see me, and turned his back.
As always comments and critiques are always welcome, and I try to 
answer those with questions, if possible.
