Thanks for your input anyway. Apr 08 12 09:04 am Link I don't have my street work handy, but after finally shifting to digital last year, many of these posts make me want to dig that 35mm and my stashed film rolls out and hit the pavement again. Really stirring stuff here. Apr 08 12 09:12 am Link I use to shoot a lot of street photography. Haven't shot this in years. Most of mine were shot using film in the gritty streets in Detroit and when I'd moved to San Francisco doing some documentary like work on the young homeless that were drug addicts and during the protest against the war in Iraq back in 2003. I'll see if I can find some of my stuff. I may have some digital work around here too. Apr 08 12 09:48 am Link Some asked if you shoot close up or with a zoom. And some suggest engaging with the subject is the best approach. Whatever works for you. For me, what works for me will depend on the what's taking place. Example, if it's an individual or two people that I see something stand out, I'll ask them to take a candid photograph of them. With my images where I don't do this, it's more related to a situation that's happening. I don't step in because it will mess up what I'm trying to capture. It might be an argument or when I'd photographed this girl shooting up drugs in here arm inside of an old warehouse. I believe in adapting to the situation that's given to me during that time. Apr 08 12 10:06 am Link might be pushing the definition of street photography a bit with these. oh well.

No one was hurt but the damage was pretty extensive... unfortunately it was mostly water damage, one apartment destroyed by fire, six destroyed by water. Apr 27 12 06:51 pm Link I know I am going to get a lot of rants for this but oh well. Street photography is the wrong name, unless you are photographing street signs, roads or things that are on the street. Once you include the human element, it becomes photojournalism. Why? Because there is a story behind every human being. Please, don't think that photojournalism is only for newspapers or that it is only for news. I see a lot of photos here that fall in the category of "features", as described in the book "Photojournalism, a Professionals Approach" by Keneth Krobe. Let the rants begin.
