Just curious. I know everybody’s different.

    Street photography with backs of people. Backs are ok if done for a good reason - see Lee Friedlander “New York City, 1966” and others for examples of well done 'backs '.

    Street photography with subjects waaaay far away. Get closer. Zoom with your feet.

    I suppose I’ll be down-voted and told to let people do what they want, but to me, it isn’t really street photography.

      both of those are just people who aren’t confident to get in front of, or close to their subjects. i agree i think they should just go out and shoot much more instead before sharing. i see way too many “tried street photography for the first time” posts that’s just that crap. nobody needs to see anything you’ve done for the first time.
