Post your street photography here

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Don't hesitate to educate me as to why a picture taken inside a theater should qualify as street photography.

Not sure why you did not respond to me in messages. Don't want to derail this thread. Really I am unclear why it isn't street photography and was just looking for clarity not an argument.
 
It’s definitely documentary... people tend to intermix street and documentary, so it’s all good...

Just checked some places where "street" is on display. Not a single image is from inside a building. And does it really it matter whether "some" people commingle street and documentary as one, street still remains an image taken outside any building? I mean that is direct implication of what street is. There may be a grey area for OUT qualification, but a still shot in a theater with only silence going on does not seem to conform.

Just my 2cents: if thread is about posting street photographs it would quite naturally draw some comments, so discussing what "street" means seems like natural consequence for such a thread.

And for what it's worth, the color image from beach is to me hardly within "street" all the same. It could be just some of us who expect the street genre to show well ... image of something that implies a street being connected without necessarily showing a paved or unpaved ground within it.
