general question: why do you people shoot street? why do you like it, why do you think it's worth doing, what's special about it?

Twenties Superstar answered this perfetly.

Pompous Rhombus those Thai New Years shots are great, really capture the energy of the celebrations. Your thread in tourism and travel was a big inspiration before i went backpacking, although only for 6 weeks.

For the first time today I actually asked someone if I could take there picture, granted it was a crazy preacher but I like the way they came out.





the contrast on these is really nice.

I have just watched part one of that documentary and I feel like I haven't learnt anything about street photography but do feel like I have sat through a 15 minute presentation by a Leica salesman.

Part 2 hasn't started off any better...

part 1 and 2 are "rangemaster!", the rest is "we don't just take pictures you plebians WE DOCUMENT THE HUMAN CONDITION ITS ART" the whole thing is kinda crap
