This one is quite spontaneous. Did you get noticed by the ladies, or was this completely stealth?

Thanks! Local Meetup group went out to do night street -- I was the only one shooting film, and hauling around a Graphic View and heavy aluminum surveying tripod. And this was in 2005-2006 time frame.
 
 
The High Street of my Town, BRENTWOOD in England has been closed off to all traffic except BUSES and CYCLES, and there ar echeckpoints at each end of the road with operators who lift the barriers -- just like 'Checkpoint Charlie' in BERLIN !! I used my 1986 Leica M6 + 2005 outdated Konica VX 400 Super + Canadian Leitz 35mm f1.4 Summilux

I'll post an image for each of my favorite films:

To be honest, I don't think the last 5 pictures qualify as 'street' pictures. More like urban landscape. Your thoughts?
 
I would be interested if anyone could define what street photography is? I always think of it as un-staged life in general.
 
Street life in a small town, one participant . There was a dog but it ran off before I could snap this
 



From a few years ago, when people could gather and hold things like comic conventions and such.

One of my favourite recent street photos, and one of the few times I wish I'd packed my DSLR that day instead of a film rangefinder. Amazing scene but just dim dingy lighting....

Colin,

How do you decide between the DSLR and a film rangefinder? Curious as it isn't (street / social doc.) an area of photography I have much experience of.
