Here's a few of my more recent Street shots. I hope you like them. I'm wondering about the rules and/or thoughts of others on what is acceptable as "Street"? I tend to be a bit of purist in determining what is or isn't Street. Ie. candid photos of people blah blah. Then you have Urban, (Street without people) and Street Portraits, where the subject poses. I'm happy to share and go along with whatever but just wanted to check and hear opinions.

Been working on my manual settings and how to use ISO, shutter speeds & F settings. As hard as it has been I’m loving some my outputs and its rewarding , feedback welcome and any tips or thoughts.

Cheating! So I have been using ChatGPT 5 to come up with interesting photo ideas to take down in Melbourne. I have asked it for those which would be free to take at certain times of the day, when to be there etc for the best light, and for each photoshoot I would be happy to pay for entry fees to gain access to others (e.g. The Latest French Impressionist paintings on display at the NGV - National Gallery of Victoria). I've given it a fairly liberal 12 hours for a planned visit. So in the grid it came back with some excellent ideas, a number of which I had not thought of. But here's the problem . . . I have asked it for map with a walking route with times between targets and whether or not a trip on a Tram is best, etc. It stays stuck on stupid and keeps referring to "as the crow flies". I am not a crow however, and need denoted footpaths and laneways and streets to walk on and how long they will take and which obstacles I might face - what are the known Tram delays due to Protesters on a Saturday, etc. Will keep working on it, however once this is perfected and one has a Drone at hand . . . LOL, just input this and say "Drone Go!" and observe from 150 km away. Taking all the fun out of Street Photography by 2030, but hey . . . you can't beat nor fight the ever improving Tech World we are slowly inheriting. Thoughts? What do you think we will be facing in 2030?
