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.
Huh? Street photography, while poorly named, has nothing to do with streets. It can be done in malls, on trains, on hiking trails, and a million other places with no streets.
Yes of course, I just meant it’s just as much the people as where those people are, so yeah it doesnt have to be a street, but people understand ‘Street Photography’ generally more than having to explain “Photography in any public place”, I wasnt trying to infer that it had to be a street
