Post your street photography here

Blad SWC
 
I started to photograph on streets because I was travelling for years and want to walk around, instead of sitting in the pub as others did. Back then I didn't know it has to be on film. Learning about subject, I realized I like film street photography pictures from others most. And I started to learn about street photographers who did it on film. And so many of them with Leicas in use... I started save money to be able to get and use them and was getting kind of known a little. But here is the Flickr and its "in explore".
I had couple of my rangefinders photos in Flickr Explore. I mean photos of rangefinder gear. In my past with rangefinders on the streets...
At some point I got frustrated with quirky RF cameras which seems to be in constant need of the service. Including Leica M cameras. I purchased Nikon Nikkormat and F2 (as source for better curtains for Leica M) and even EM. They are cheap. but just works.
Those are three street photo images taken with Nikon EM and cheap, non Nikkor lenses and they went into Flickr Explore in 2020.

What I'm doing wrong with prestige film M camera and Leica sharp lens?
 
 
 
 
 
Here is a 'Candid' taken while still walking past to test if the 'Auto-Focus' was accurate enough -- I have not 'Straightened ' it deliberately. It was PENTAX SF=7 + SMC Pentax-F Zoom 35-70mm f3.5-4.5 and 'AV' exposure at f4 FILM was Kodak BW400CN C41 type I processed myself in C41.

Street photography, also sometimes called candid photography, is photography conducted for art or enquiry that features unmediated chance encounters and random incidents within public places.

Now, what is your definition?
