To be more specific as time passed I’ve noticed a shift in the way I approach street photography, in the earlier days I’d be more open to photograph people on the streets and while I still do, I’ve adjusted to taking photos from more of a distance or ideally from angles where their faces aren’t directly in the frame. Feels a bit weird at times because you’d think that as you shoot more you get comfortable with these scenarios. Maybe it’s a form of growth to respect peoples personal space, a bit more but I also just prefer that look. I don’t think there is a right or wrong way to handle street photography but curious to hear what others have experienced over time.

    i am rather afraid of it. when i get someone in the shot, i try to approach them and ask if they want copies. or whether they are okay with it.

    people are usually fine with it, some of them even want to pose for me, going into portraits.

    had a handful of negative responses so far.

    with time i think i develop a sense for who enjoys being in the shot and who does not. aside from street performers, that is.
