Photographer Comments: I snapped this quick picture as I walking down a street looking for interesting things to photograph. I was actually a few seconds late, and wished I had captured the child's face a second or two earlier. If I had, it would have won an award! The gentleman was not very pleased that I took the picture. I didn't stick around to chat and he moved on to focus on more important things.
